CVS commit: src/sys/arch/i386/i386



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   tls
Date:           Thu Jan 10 11:10:35 UTC 2008

Modified Files:
        src/sys/arch/i386/i386: machdep.c

Log Message:
Add sparse kernel core dump ("minidump") support for i386, written by Jed
Davis for Coyote Point.  Though this does not modify the kernel core
format (it uses multiple memory segments, a feature previously unused on
i386) it is nonetheless disabled by default.  Sysctl machdep.sparse_dump=1
to turn this feature on.

Dumps of even busy, large-memory systems are generally a few tens of
megabytes.
