The original kexec_load syscall can not verify file signatures, nor can

syscall.


Curiosity question: I thought kexec_load() syscall was used to load a crashdump? If this is true, how would this work if kexec_load() is being denied? I don't think I'd want to be hindered in cases where I'm trying to diagnose a crash.

Thanks,
Jay
