This series creates a 32 bit zImage wrapper for a 32 or 64 bit PowerPC Linux kernel. This allows you to kexec a zImage with its compressed vmlinux instead of the uncompressed vmlinux elf. The elf is also packaged as a 64 bit elf for use by kexec-tools for 64 bit kernels.
This series also adds code to extract the vmlinux elf file from an initramfs (or other platform supplied location). This allows one to load the elf once (compressed) and use it both for userspace and for the actual boot. milton _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
