Define a new boolean config OF_KEXEC that is enabled if

the architecture is arm64 or powerpc64.  Build drivers/of/kexec.c

Is it possible to reuse CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC here?


For ppc64 CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC is selected when CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is enabled.
So I don't see a problem in reusing CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC for ppc.

But for arm64, CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC is enabled in the final patch in the patch
set (the one for carrying forward IMA log across kexec for arm64). arm64 calls
of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() prior to enabling CONFIG_HAVE_IMA_KEXEC and hence
breaks the build for arm64.

One problem is that I believe that this patch won't placate the robot,
because IIUC it generates config files at random and this change still
allows hppa and s390 to enable CONFIG_OF_KEXEC.

I enabled CONFIG_OF_KEXEC for s390. With my patch applied, CONFIG_OF_KEXEC is removed. So I think the robot enabling this config would not be a problem.


Perhaps a new CONFIG_HAVE_KIMAGE_ARCH option? Not having that option
would still allow building kexec.o, but would be used inside kexec.c to
avoid accessing kimage.arch members.


I think this is a good idea - a new CONFIG_HAVE_KIMAGE_ARCH, which will be selected by arm64 and ppc for now. I tried this, and it fixes the build issue.

Although, the name for the new config can be misleading since PARISC, for instance, also defines "struct kimage_arch". Perhaps, CONFIG_HAVE_ELF_KIMAGE_ARCH since of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() is accessing ELF specific fields in "struct kimage_arch"?

Rob/Mimi - please let us know which approach you think is better.

thanks,
