This occurs because of the following sequence in the boot: Main kernel boots and sets E820 map. The second kernel is booted with a map generated by the kdump service using memmap= and memmap=exactmap. These parameters are added to the kernel parameters of the kexec/kdump kernel. The kexec/kdump kernel has limited memory resources so as not to severely impact the main kernel. The system then panics and the kdump/kexec kernel boots (which is a completely new kernel boot). During this boot ACPI is initialized and the kernel (as can be seen above) traverses the ACPI namespace and finds an entry for a memory device to be hotadded. ie) [ 3.053720] [<ffffffff815a1e9f>] __add_pages+0xaf/0x240 [ 3.059656] [<ffffffff81047359>] arch_add_memory+0x59/0xd0 [ 3.065877] [<ffffffff815a21d9>] add_memory+0xb9/0x1b0 [ 3.071713] [<ffffffff81333b9c>] acpi_memory_device_add+0x18d/0x26d [ 3.078813] [<ffffffff81309a01>] acpi_bus_device_attach+0x7d/0xcd [ 3.085719] [<ffffffff8132379d>] acpi_ns_walk_namespace+0xc8/0x17f [ 3.092716] [<ffffffff81309984>] ? acpi_bus_type_and_status+0x90/0x90 [ 3.100004] [<ffffffff81309984>] ? acpi_bus_type_and_status+0x90/0x90 [ 3.107293] [<ffffffff81323c8c>] acpi_walk_namespace+0x95/0xc5 [ 3.113904] [<ffffffff8130a6d6>] acpi_bus_scan+0x8b/0x9d [ 3.119933] [<ffffffff81a2019a>] acpi_scan_init+0x63/0x160 [ 3.126153] [<ffffffff81a1ffb5>] acpi_init+0x25d/0x2a6 At this point the kernel adds page table information and the the kexec/kdump kernel runs out of memory. This can also be reproduced by using the memmap=exactmap and mem=X parameters on the main kernel and booting. This patchset resolves the problem by adding a kernel parameter, acpi_no_memhotplug, to disable ACPI memory hotplug.
