This patch implements the functionality of jumping between the kexeced kernel and the original kernel. A new reboot command named LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_KJUMP is defined to trigger the jumping to (executing) the new kernel and jumping back to the original kernel. To support jumping between two kernels, before jumping to (executing) the new kernel and jumping back to the original kernel, the devices are put into quiescent state (to be fully implemented), and the state of devices and CPU is saved. After jumping back from kexeced kernel and jumping to the new kernel, the state of devices and CPU are restored accordingly. The devices/CPU state save/restore code of software suspend is called to implement corresponding function. To support jumping without preserving memory. One shadow backup page is allocated for each page used by new (kexeced) kernel. When do kexec_load, the image of new kernel is loaded into shadow pages, and before executing, the original pages and the shadow pages are swapped, so the contents of original pages are backuped. Before jumping to the new (kexeced) kernel and after jumping back to the original kernel, the original pages and the shadow pages are swapped too. A jump back protocol is defined and documented. Known issues - A field is added to Linux kernel real-mode header. This is temporary, and should be replaced after the 32-bit boot protocol and setup data patches are accepted. - The suspend method of device is used to put device in quiescent state. But if the ACPI is enabled this will also put devices into low power state, which prevent the new kernel from booting. So, the ACPI must be disabled both in original kernel and kexeced kernel. This is planed to be resolved after the suspend method and hibernate method is separated for device as proposed earlier in the LKML. - The NX (none executable) bit should be turned off for the control page if available. ChangeLog -- 2007/9/19 -- 1. Two reboot command are merge back to one again because the underlying implementation is same. 2. Jumping without preserving memory is implemented. As a side effect, two direction jumping is implemented. 3. A jump back protocol is defined and documented. The orignal kernel and kexeced kernel are more independent from each other. 4. The CPU state save/restore code are merged into relocate_kernel.S. -- 2007/8/24 -- 1. The reboot command LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_KJUMP is split into to two reboot command to reflect the different function. 2. Document is added for added kernel parameters. 3. /sys/kernel/kexec_jump_buf_pfn is made writable, it is used for memory image restoring. 4. Console restoring after jumping back is implemented. -- 2007/7/15 -- 1. The kexec jump implementation is put into the kexec/kdump framework instead of software suspend framework. The device and CPU state save/restore code of software suspend is called when needed. 2. The same code path is used for both kexec a new kernel and jump back to original kernel.
