Just a comment from my point of view. Perhaps, you live in a happy world, Linux on IA-32, or something where all the functionalities are available *already*. To run kexec successfully, we need working Linux beforehand. FWIW, we are developing or porting Linux itself. Linux or other kernel requires many feature to porters. Say, context switch, semaphore, interrupt handling and others. While my code runs in single thread, no requirement on such things. --
