From dd23e8098f33a55b22b869bc7fc0a795ccbb9f87 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Fainelli Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2021 17:22:46 -0800 Subject: initramfs: panic with memory information On systems with large amounts of reserved memory we may fail to successfully complete unpack_to_rootfs() and be left with: Kernel panic - not syncing: write error this is not too helpful to understand what happened, so let's wrap the panic() calls with a surrounding show_mem() such that we have a chance of understanding the memory conditions leading to these allocation failures.
