commit c2337a40e04dde1692b5b0a46ecc59f89aaba8a1 upstream.
This commit addresses the following erroneous situation with file-based
kdump executed on a system with a valid IPL report.
On s390, a kdump kernel, its initrd and IPL report if present are loaded
into a special and reserved on boot memory region - crashkernel. When
a system crashes and kdump was activated before, the purgatory code
is entered first which swaps the crashkernel and [0 - crashkernel size]
memory regions. Only after that the kdump kernel is entered. For this
reason, the pointer to an IPL report in lowcore must point to the IPL report
after the swap and not to the address of the IPL report that was located in
crashkernel memory region before the swap. Failing to do so, makes the
kdump's decompressor try to read memory from the crashkernel memory region
which already contains the production's kernel memory.
The situation described above caused spontaneous kdump failures/hangs
on systems where the Secure IPL is activated because on such systems
an IPL report is always present. In that case kdump's decompressor tried
to parse an IPL report which frequently lead to illegal memory accesses
because an IPL report contains addresses to various data.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
