Hi All,
Is there a max number of slabs that can be used per kernel module? I'm having a tough time finding out that kind of information, but the array 'node_zonelists' (mmzone.h) has a size of 5. I just want to avoid buffer overruns and other bad stuff.
Cheers,

Question may seem illogical but I still need clarification.
Can we debug kernel modules loaded on my target system using kdb / kgdb without using any other system or remote debugging?
In other words my question is can we use kdb/kgdb to debug kernel modules running on same system? (2 Replies)

mkinitrd
MKINITRD(8) dracut MKINITRD(8)
NAME
mkinitrd - is a compat wrapper, which calls dracut to generate an initramfs
SYNOPSIS
mkinitrd [OPTION...] [<initrd-image>] <kernel-version>
DESCRIPTION
mkinitrd creates an initramfs image <initrd-image> for the kernel with version <kernel-version> by calling "dracut".
Important
If a more fine grained control over the resulting image is needed, "dracut" should be called directly.
OPTIONS
--version
print info about the version
-v, --verbose
increase verbosity level
-f, --force
overwrite existing initramfs file.
*--image-version
append the kernel version to the target image <initrd-image>-<kernel-version>.
--with=<module>
add the kernel module <module> to the initramfs.
--preload=<module>
preload the kernel module <module> in the initramfs before any other kernel modules are loaded. This can be used to ensure a certain
device naming, which should in theory be avoided and the use of symbolic links in /dev is encouraged.
--nocompress
do not compress the resulting image.
--help
print a help message and exit.
AVAILABILITY
The mkinitrd command is part of the dracut package and is available from https://dracut.wiki.kernel.org
