I am experiencing issues using kexec to load Xen 4.17(debian's apt version),

You should CC this to XEN dev list so that XEN dev knows this and may
provide help. Not everyone is interested in and knows XEN.

System information:
$ uname -a
Linux host 6.9.10-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.9.10-1 (2024-07-19)
x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ kexec --version # compiled from source tarball with ./configure --with-xen
kexec-tools 2.0.29

Steps to reproduce:

1. Set variables:

XEN_HYPERVISOR="/boot/xen.gz"
XEN_CMD="dom0_mem=6G dom0_max_vcpus=6 dom0_vcpus_pin cpufreq=xen"

2. Attempt to load Xen 4.19-rc4:

# kexec -l "$XEN_HYPERVISOR" --command-line="$XEN_CMD"
Could not find a free area of memory of 0x3b6001 bytes...
elf_exec_build_load_relocatable: ELF exec load failed

3. Attempt to load Xen 4.20-dev:

# kexec -l "$XEN_HYPERVISOR" --command-line="$XEN_CMD"
Could not find a free area of memory of 0x3f8001 bytes...
elf_exec_build_load_relocatable: ELF exec load failed

4. Attempt to load Xen 4.17 (from debian rrepositories):
# kexec -l /boot/xen-4.17-amd64.gz --command-line="$XEN_CMD"
Could not find a free area of memory of 0x3b4001 bytes...
elf_exec_build_load_relocatable: ELF exec load failed

If you need any further information to investigate this problem,
please let me know.

PS: If I used apt's pacakged version (which might be compiled
--without-xen),
it shows,

# kexec -l "$XEN_HYPERVISOR" --command-line="$XEN_CMD"
Cannot determine the file type of /boot/xen-4.17-amd64.gz

# kexec -l "$XEN_HYPERVISOR" --command-line="$XEN_CMD" --type=bzImage
Cannot determine the file type of /boot/xen-4.17-amd64.gz


Thank you for your attention to this matter.
