[PATCH v4] kexec-tools: mips: Pass initrd parameter via cmdline

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

 



Under loongson platform, use command:
kexec -l vmlinux... --append="root=UUID=28e1..." --initrd=...
kexec -e
quick restart failed like this:

*******************************************************************

The kernel cannot parse the UUID, the UUID is parsed in the initrd.
For compatibility with previous platforms, loongson platform obtain
initrd parameter through cmdline in kernel, the kernel supports use
cmdline to parse initrd. But under the mips architecture, kexec-tools
pass the initrd through DTB.

So some modifications as follows:

(1) in kexec/arch/mips/kexec-elf-mips.c
    Add patch_initrd_info(), at runtime to distinguish different cpu,
    only for loongson cpu, add initrd parameter to cmdline.

(2) in kexec/arch/mips/crashdump-mips.c
    Because loongson uses a different page_offset, it should be modified
    to ensure that crashdump functionality is correct and reliable.
