Even if I set --kexec-syscall. On my early tries I got "syscall kexec_file_load not available." When I did a full rebuild of my buildroot to go back to kexec-tool 2.0.18, this syscall become availlable. The get_memory_ranges seems to be called only from my_load() which is executed when !do_kexec_file_syscall. Since kexec-tool always set do_kexec_file_syscall, it is never called. I have added a print for each syscal option, and it seems that OPT_KEXEC_SYSCALL_AUTO is called after the handling of OPT_KEXEC_SYSCALL. So I have hack to always set do_kexec_file_syscall=0 So now my test go further, but the final kernel crash.
