This patchset is for adding efi runtime support on kexec kernel kernel patches see below thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.efi/2491 in kexec-tools, this patchset will do below: 1. retrieve efi_info from debugfs boot_params, and fill the x86 setup header 2. collect data efi runtime needed: /sys/firmware/efi/systab: fw_vendor, runtime, config_tables and smbios /sys/firmware/efi/efi-runtime-map/*, the phys-virt mappings in 1st kernel 3. assemble setup_data based on data get in 2) then pass it to 2nd kernel Tested on OVMF, dell laptop, lenovo laptop and HP workstation Please help to review V2 changelog: Address comments from Simon: coding style, fixed a mem leak HPA: use type uint64_t instead of __uint64_t mjg: do not cause regression for loading old kernel use xloadflags to check the bzImage support for efi. in case old kernel, do not pass efi_info and setup_data for new kernel, do not pass acpi_rsdp Vivek: suggest to export a value in bzImage probe for efi support so it can be used to check if we should pass acpi_rsdp. -- Thanks dave -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
