Currently, "kdumpctl estimate" neglects the memory overhead cost of cryptsetup itself. Unfortunately, there is no golden formula to calculate the overhead cost [1]. So estimate the overhead cost as 50M for aarch64 and 20M for other architectures based on the following empirical data, | Overhead (M) | OS | arch | | ------------ | ----------------------------------------- | ------- | | 14.1 | RHEL-9.2.0-20220829.d.1 | ppc64le | | 14 | Fedora-37-20220830.n.0 Everything ppc64le | ppc64le | | 17 | Fedora 36 | ppc64le | | 8.8 | Fedora 35 | s390x | | 10.1 | Fedora-Rawhide-20220829.n.0, fc38 | s390x | | 42 | Fedora-Rawhide-20220829.n.0, fc38 | arch64 | | 40 | F35 | arch64 | | 42 | F36 | arch64 | | 42 | Fedora-Rawhide-20220901.n.0 | arch64 | | 10 | F35 | x86_64 | | 10 | Fedora-Rawhide-20220901.n.0 | x86_64 | | 11 | Fedora-Rawhide-20220901.n.0 | x86_64 | [1] https://lore.kernel.org/cryptsetup/20220616044339.376qlipk5h2omhx2@Rk/T/#u Fixes: e9e6a2c ("kdumpctl: Add kdumpctl estimate") Signed-off-by: Coiby Xu <coxu@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Philipp Rudo <prudo@redhat.com>
