[PATCH v2 0/5] kexec_file_load() for arm

From: Åukasz Stelmach
Date: Tue Jun 02 2020 - 12:17:57 EST


The following series of patches provides implementation of the
kexec_file_load() system call form the arm architecture. zImage and uImage
(legacy format) files are supported. Like on arm64, there is no
possibility of loading a new DTB and the currently loaded is reused.

Changes in v2:
- add CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE_UIMAGE for optional uImage support
- MALLOC_SIZE as a define instead of a symbol
- DCSZ tag holds combined dynamic memory requirements (bss+stack+malloc)
- use union for a single tag structure
- copyright notice includes Russell King

Åukasz Stelmach (5):
arm: decompressor: set malloc pool size for the decompressor
arm: add image header definitions
arm: decompressor: define a new zImage tag
arm: Add kexec_image_info
arm: kexec_file: load zImage or uImage, initrd and dtb
