When ramoops reserved a memory region in the kernel, it had an unhelpful label of "persistent_memory". When reading /proc/iomem, it would be repeated many times, did not hint that it was ramoops in particular, and didn't clarify very much about what each was used for: 400000000-407ffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy) 400000000-400000fff : persistent_memory 400001000-400001fff : persistent_memory ... 4000ff000-4000fffff : persistent_memory Instead, this adds meaningful labels for how the various regions are being used: 400000000-407ffffff : Persistent Memory (legacy) 400000000-400000fff : ramoops:dump(0/252) 400001000-400001fff : ramoops:dump(1/252) ... 4000fc000-4000fcfff : ramoops:dump(252/252) 4000fd000-4000fdfff : ramoops:console 4000fe000-4000fe3ff : ramoops:ftrace(0/3) 4000fe400-4000fe7ff : ramoops:ftrace(1/3) 4000fe800-4000febff : ramoops:ftrace(2/3) 4000fec00-4000fefff : ramoops:ftrace(3/3) 4000ff000-4000fffff : ramoops:pmsg Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@joelfernandes.org> Tested-by: Sai Prakash Ranjan <saiprakash.ranjan@codeaurora.org> Tested-by: Guenter Roeck <groeck@chromium.org>
