[kvm-unit-tests PATCH v5 03/11] s390x: Make tests bootable from disk

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

 



Currently tests are run with the --kernel option of Qemu, which will
load the ELF file and jump to the start address. When booting from
disk, we need to specify a start address. This is done by setting the
initial short PSW at 0x0.

.text was moved to 0x11000 because the bootloader can write from
0x10480 until 0x11000 if it has a lot to write. 0x10480 to 0x10600 was
not enough safe space.
