Support for relocatable kernel in kexec-tools This patch is based on the patch sent by Milton Miller with the subject [PATCH 1/2 kexec-tools] ppc64: new relocatble kernel activation ABI http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/5378/ Even with the above patch, the relocatable kernel always move to physical address 0 (ie PHYSICAL_START). Following patch fixes this problem by marking a local variable to 1 in purgatory during kdump kernel load time (kexec -p). After a crash, purgatory sets __run_at_load variable location in the kernel to 1 if the local variable is set to 1. So that the kernel will be running as a relocatable kernel. Signed-off-by: M.
