+Subject: [PATCH] LF-419 arm64/crash_core: Export TCR_EL1.T1SZ in vmcoreinfo
+
+vabits_actual variable on arm64 indicates the actual VA space size,
+and allows a single binary to support both 48-bit and 52-bit VA
+spaces.
+
+If the ARMv8.2-LVA optional feature is present, and we are running
+with a 64KB page size; then it is possible to use 52-bits of address
+space for both userspace and kernel addresses. However, any kernel
+binary that supports 52-bit must also be able to fall back to 48-bit
+at early boot time if the hardware feature is not present.
+
+Since TCR_EL1.T1SZ indicates the size offset of the memory region
+addressed by TTBR1_EL1 (and hence can be used for determining the
+vabits_actual value) it makes more sense to export the same in
+vmcoreinfo rather than vabits_actual variable, as the name of the
+variable can change in future kernel versions, but the architectural
+constructs like TCR_EL1.T1SZ can be used better to indicate intended
+specific fields to user-space.
+
+User-space utilities like makedumpfile and crash-utility, need to
+read/write this value from/to vmcoreinfo for determining if a virtual
+address lies in the linear map range.
+
+The user-space computation for determining whether an address lies in
+the linear map range is the same as we have in kernel-space:
+
+ #define __is_lm_address(addr) (!(((u64)addr) & BIT(vabits_actual - 1)))
+
+I have sent out user-space patches for makedumpfile and crash-utility
+to add features for obtaining vabits_actual value from TCR_EL1.T1SZ (see
+[0] and [1]).
+
+Akashi reported that he was able to use this patchset and the user-space
+changes to get user-space working fine with the 52-bit kernel VA
+changes (see [2]).
