[PATCH 08/12] kexec: don't invoke OOM-killer for control page allocation

If we are unable to find a suitable page when allocating the control page, do not invoke the OOM-killer: killing processes probably isn't going to help. Signed-off-by: Russell King --- include/linux/kexec.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff

[PATCH 04/12] ARM: provide arm_has_idmap_alias() helper

Provide a helper to indicate whether we need to perform special handling for boot identity mapping aliases or not. Signed-off-by: Russell King --- arch/arm/include/asm/memory.h | 5 + 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/arch/arm/include/asm/memory.h

[PATCH 05/12] ARM: kdump: advertise boot aliased crash kernel resource

Advertise a resource which describes where the crash kernel is located in the boot view of RAM. This allows kexec-tools to have this vital information. Signed-off-by: Russell King --- arch/arm/kernel/setup.c | 16 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+)

[PATCH 10/12] kexec: arrange for paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() to return phys_addr_t

On PAE systems (eg, ARM LPAE) the vmcore note may be located above 4GB physical on 32-bit architectures, so we need a wider type than "unsigned long" here. Arrange for paddr_vmcoreinfo_note() to return a phys_addr_t, thereby allowing it to be located above 4GB. This makes no difference for

[PATCH 11/12] kexec: allow architectures to override boot mapping

kexec physical addresses are the boot-time view of the system. For certain ARM systems (such as Keystone 2), the boot view of the system does not match the kernel's view of the system: the boot view uses a special alias in the lower 4GB of the physical address space. To cater for these kinds of

[PATCH 09/12] kexec: ensure user memory sizes do not wrap

Ensure that user memory sizes do not wrap around when validating the user input, which can lead to the following input validation working incorrectly. Signed-off-by: Russell King --- kernel/kexec_core.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git

[PATCH 02/12] ARM: provide improved virt_to_idmap() functionality

For kexec, we need more functionality from the IDMAP system. We need to be able to convert physical addresses to their identity mappped versions as well as virtual addresses. Convert the existing arch_virt_to_idmap() to deal with physical addresses instead. Acked-by: Santosh Shilimkar

[PATCH 01/12] ARM: kexec: fix crashkernel= handling

When the kernel crashkernel parameter is specified with just a size, we are supposed to allocate a region from RAM to store the crashkernel. However, ARM merely reserves physical address zero with no checking that there is even RAM there. Fix this by lifting similar code from x86, importing it to

[PATCH 07/12] ARM: keystone: dts: add psci command definition

From: Vitaly Andrianov This commit adds definition for cpu_on, cpu_off and cpu_suspend commands. These definitions must match the corresponding PSCI definitions in boot monitor. Having those command and corresponding PSCI support in boot monitor allows run time CPU hot plugin.
