Title:
ISST-LTE: pVM:high cpus number need a high crashkernel value in kdump
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The kdump kernel will be booted with "maxcpus=1", so no matter how many cpus
this system has, only one cpu will be brought up during kdump I think. But on
LPAR thymelp2, if we allocate 40 cpus on it, then kdump works just fine with
512M as crashkernel value. But if we allocate 200 cpus on it, kdump fails by
trggering OOM. It has been proved that in latter situation we need 1.5G RAM
reserved for kdump to let it works.

Machine Type = 8247-22L, LPAR
---Debugger---
A debugger was configured, however the system did not enter into the debugger
---Steps to Reproduce---
1. configure kdump with crashkernel=512M on thymelp2
2. allcoate 40 cpus on thymelp2 and trigger kdump
3. allocate 200 cpus on thymelp2 then do kdump again
