Our hypervisor has directly booted vmlinux this way. Note that in recent kernels physaddr is even set to zero, allowing the ELF loader to just use that instead of magically knowing the kernel wants to go at address zero. > For kernel the following is as default: > v:0xc0000000 --> p:0x0 That mapping is set up by code at the entry point of vmlinux, not by the bootwrapper. -Scott _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
