Subject: [PATCH 0/8] kexec: put bzImage and ramdisk above 4G for x86 64bit
Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2012 15:04:19 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1353107067-14564-1-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org> (raw)

Now we have limit kdump reseved under 896M, because kexec has the limitation.
and also bzImage need to stay under 4g.

kernel parts changes could be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/yinghai/linux-yinghai.git for-x86-boot

here patches are for kexec tools to load bzImage and ramdisk high acccording
to new added boot header fields.

Yinghai Lu (8):
  Add min/max macro
  x86: add boot header member for version 2.12
  add mem64_min/max control
  Move out mem_min/max checking in locate_hole
  seperate checking 64bit mem range
  debug print out for add_buf
  x86: put ramdisk high for 64bit bzImage
  x86: put 64bit bzImage high
