I'm happy to announce the release of kexec-tools 2.0.0-rc1.
This marks the changing of the name of the tree that
I maintain from kexec-tools-testing to kexec-tools.
Please test this code so we can move towards releasing 2.0.0.

for 64bit, kdump can start from address above 4g with bzImage?
I think the boot protocol was properly updated for that, it was in the
original drafts. A relocatable kernel with a 64bit entry point.
I do know that the 64bit code is ready to do that.

Exactly.
All we should do in the kernel is bias the search for a low address.
As that is more usable.

Are you sure? CFLAGS will include stuff for $host (eg, -m64 for a 64-bit

You have cited various possible use cases of this patchset. Which is
the specific feature you are planning to use?
I think two features are useful:
1. Kexec based hibernation
2. Do kdump then continue
