[PATCH 10/11] kexec_file: Allow archs to set purgatory load address

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For s390 new kernels are loaded to fixed addresses in memory before they
are booted. With the current code this is a problem as it assumes the
kernel will be loaded to an 'arbitrary' address. In particular,
kexec_locate_mem_hole searches for a large enough memory region and sets
the load address (kexec_bufer->mem) to it.

Luckily there is a simple workaround for this problem. By returning 1 in
arch_kexec_walk_mem, kexec_locate_mem_hole is turned off. This allows the
architecture to set kbuf->mem by hand. While the trick works fine for the
kernel it does not for the purgatory as here the architectures don't have
access to its kexec_buffer.

Give architectures access to the purgatories kexec_buffer by changing
kexec_load_purgatory to take a pointer to it. With this change
architectures have access to the buffer and can edit it as they need.

A nice side effect of this change is that we can get rid of the
purgatory_info->purgatory_load_address field. As now the information stored
there can directly be accessed from kbuf->mem.
