Hi A simple question: do I understand it right that at the moment memory for new kernel is reserved at boot time? What does it actually mean - this memory is not used at all by the system (kernel and user) or only not used for certain operations, e.g., DMA, as mentioned in arch/i386/kernel/machine_kexec.c? If the latter, I could understand it, that if the current kernel crashes, you might not be able to stop DMA operations (?). Am I right or is there some other reason?
