Make 64bit kernel / o32|n32|64 kexec-tools works + +Fix the user-space kexec-tools, seems the tool only work for 32bit +machine. So, we need to add 64bit support for it. The address of the +entry point(kexec_start_address) is wrong and make the "kexec -e" fail. +the real entry point must be read from the new kernel image by the +user-space kexec-tools, otherwise, it will not work. The above 64bit +support tested is 64bit kernel with o32 user-space kexec-tools. The root +cause may be the different definition of virt_to_phys() and +phys_to_virt() in the kexec-tools and kernel space for 64bit system / +o32 kernel. + +Ref: http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2009-08/msg00149.html + +2.
