That's what I'd like to find out :)

That seems a little bit clunky; we may not always want the restart
action to be a kexec (but just a normal reboot). In this case, would we
need to be dynamically reconfiguring the restart action?

My thinking here is that a kexec reboot is almost identical to a normal
reboot, only varying in the argument to the reboot() syscall. So, might
as well use the the existing infrastructure to do this.

Cheers,


Jeremy
