[PATCH v7 11/13] powerpc: Add support for loading ELF kernels with kexec_file_load.

Thiago Jung Bauermann bauerman at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Wed Aug 31 03:43:59 AEST 2016


This uses all the infrastructure built up by the previous patches
in the series to load an ELF vmlinux file and an initrd. It uses the
flattened device tree at initial_boot_params as a base and adjusts memory
reservations and its /chosen node for the next kernel.
