Yes, my kexec series have not been checked in.
I can fix it this weekend.

The main problem of my series is that it's a MIPS series but barebox is essentially a ARM bootloader.
It seems that I have to add kexec ARM support :)

Which hardware platform do you use?
We are indeed using an ARM platform (based on an Atmel AT91 SoC, but I haven't submitted a patch for our specific board yet). We are primarily using Barebox as a bootloader for the Linux kernel, but some of our customers want to our boards as eval kits for other operating systems (ie: eCos and FreeRTOS).

It's only for those other operating systems that we need the ability to load and execute ELF images, we're still using zImage for the Linux kernel and I'd feel bad for dumping a lot of kexec work on you when we don't really need to be able to boot Linux with it.

Cheers,
Owen
