We could sure make use of kexec for quick reboots (it bloody takes forever for the PROM to set up ECC memory). The config option is in Kconfig; I haven't checked the kernel source. But the userspace package kexec-tools barfs on the mipsel arch in configure. Is anybody using this on MIPS? Do the kernel portions work for anyone?
