ACK, I haven't tested initrd much TBH, I usually don't use an initrd,
and when I do it's a small busybox-based rootfs.

This looks weird, I'll check it out (we have an unmatched here so I'll
try to get my hands on it sometime next week).

Did you try kdump ? Do you get the same error ?

kdump works fine, it fails to find the rootfs but I think my setup is
faulty here.
I took a quick look at kexec_relocate.S, and the use of va_pa_offset
is also wrong here, we should use va_kernel_pa_offset as it is used to
modify a text address But fixing that did not work either.

Sorry for the delay, I finally got some time to work on this. As it turns out I'm passing cpu id instead of hart id to the next kernel (that comment on smp.h claiming that raw_smp_processor_id returns the hart id didn't help much) and interestingly enough cpu id and hart id match on qemu and also sometimes match on the unmatched / unleashed board. Also on unmatched / unleashed, hart id 0 is used by the non-linux hart so if we pass the cpu id of the boot cpu that's always going to be 0 it'll be invalid, but that's not always the case, especially for kdump. I'm also getting an error when trying to mount the rootfs on kdump on the unmatched board, because swiotlb can't allocate bounce buffers and the pcie driver doesn't work, so no nvme access. I'm looking for a way to make this work without messing things up, in any case I'll send some patches over the weekend. For the initrd issue I need to patch kexec-tools.

Regards,
Nick
