Hi,
Does Linux kernel for MIPS assumes that its link address is always in
Kseg0?
What if I change the link address to somewhere in useg?
Your page fault handlers will be in for an interesting time. ;o)
What you describe can be, and is done, for virtualized kernels running
on top
of a hypervisor, but there's a bit more involved than just changing
the link address.
Hi Kevin,
You just caught that. Thats what I am trying to evaluate. What all I
would need to do apart from changing the link address. I am working on a
bare metal hypervisor for MIPS architecture.
You need setup suitable TLB mappings for Linux kernel in bootloader or
Hypervisor.

Any pointers?
