[PATCH 4/4] mips_malta: Catch kernels linked at wrong address

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

 



Add error reporting if the wrong type of kernel is provided for the
current mode of acceleration.

Currently a KVM kernel linked at 0x40000000 can't be used with TCG, and
a normal kernel linked at 0x80000000 can't be used with KVM.
