vmalloc at boot time

I have been recommended to use vmalloc at boot time but the kernel crashes.

Any links(doc,wiki ...) to help me

From that link I got the vmalloc= boot parameter where the value is in Mb, where I thought the value was in bytes.

I grepped the kernel source code but I do not know which file to search for where I can obtain options that can be passed to the kernel at boot time.
