All, I'm having an issue on my ARM based platform (Xilinx Zynq, dual cortex-A9 ARM cores, 512MB RAM) where linux is hanging after 'kexec -e' is performed when I provide a FIT (flattened image tree) image: CMDLINE=$(zcat /proc/cmdline) kexec -l /boot/zImage --append="$CMDLINE" --dtb=/boot/system.dtb kexec -e ---console output--- kexec: Starting new kernel Disabling non-boot CPUs ... CPU1: shutdown Bye! -- unit hangs indefinitely But 'kexec -e' succeeds when the files are passed in seperately: CMDLINE=$(zcat /proc/cmdline) kexec -l /boot/zImage --append="$CMDLINE" --dtb=/boot/system.dtb kexec -e ---console output--- kexec: Starting new kernel Disabling non-boot CPUs ... CPU1: shutdown Bye! console [ttyPS0] enabled bootconsole [earlycon0] disabled -- unit gets all the way to root login I am thinking that perhaps there is an issue pulling zImage out of the FIT image somewhere in the kexec code. Is anyone familiar with this, or has seen a similar issue? Thanks, Justin DeFields Embedded Software Engineer
