[PATCH v1 05/21] arm64/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec

Tue Jun 13 03:27:57 AEST 2023
The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common
kernel/Kconfig.kexec. Utilize the common options and provide
the ARCH_HAS_ and ARCH_SUPPORTS_ entries to recreate the
equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.

- kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
- current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
- but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
- you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.

- This is new version of kexec system call. This system call is
- file based and takes file descriptors as system call argument
- for kernel and initramfs as opposed to list of segments as
- accepted by previous system call.

- Select this option to verify a signature with loaded kernel

- valid signature will fail.

- In addition to that option, you need to enable signature
- verification for the corresponding kernel image type being
- loaded in order for this to work.
