OK Dave, I've pulled patches 3-12 into the 'kexec' branch at, git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mfleming/efi.git I plan on sending this branch to the tip folks this week for further testing. Please have a look and make sure I haven't messed anything up when dropping the first two patches (though they were very small and trival). Toshi, if you could grab that branch and give it a test, that'd be excellent. -- Matt Fleming, Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Matt Fleming Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 00/12] kexec kernel efi runtime support Date: Sat, 21 Dec 2013 17:35:15 +0000 Message-ID: <20131221173515.GE29501@console-pimps.org> References: <1387533742-18018-1-git-send-email-dyoung@redhat.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Return-path: Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <1387533742-18018-1-git-send-email-dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org> Sender: linux-efi-owner-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org To: Dave Young Cc: linux-kernel-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org, linux-efi-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org, x86-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org, mjg59-1xO5oi07KQx4cg9Nei1l7Q@public.gmane.org, hpa-YMNOUZJC4hwAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org, James.Bottomley-d9PhHud1JfjCXq6kfMZ53/egYHeGw8Jk@public.gmane.org, vgoyal-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org, ebiederm-aS9lmoZGLiVWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org, horms-/R6kz+dDXgpPR4JQBCEnsQ@public.gmane.org, kexec-IAPFreCvJWM7uuMidbF8XUB+6BGkLq7r@public.gmane.org, bp-Gina5bIWoIWzQB+pC5nmwQ@public.gmane.org, greg-U8xfFu+wG4EAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org, toshi.kani-VXdhtT5mjnY@public.gmane.org, akpm-de/tnXTf+JLsfHDXvbKv3WD2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org, mingo-DgEjT+Ai2ygdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org, msalter-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org, leif.lindholm-QSEj5FYQhm4dnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org List-Id: linux-efi@vger.kernel.org On Fri, 20 Dec, at 06:02:10PM, Dave Young wrote: > Here is the V7 patchset for supporting kexec kernel efi runtime. > Per pervious discussion I pass the 1st kernel efi runtime mapping > via setup_data to 2nd kernel.
