Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] x86: Always to to fill acpi_rsdp_addr in boot params
Date: Tue, 14 May 2019 13:09:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190514050959.21093-1-kasong@redhat.com> (raw)

This patch sync the behavior of user space kexec and kexec_file_load,
they will both fill the boot_params.acpi_rsdp_addr with a valid RSDP
value, to make sure second kernel can always get the RSDP consistently.

This will make it effortless to boot newer version of kernel (5.0+)
without specifying acpi_rsdp= cmdline on EFI system even with EFI
service disabled. Should not change any behavior with older kernels.

Update from V1:
  - Split into multiple patches for a cleaner structure, content is not
    changed.

Kairui Song (4):
  x86: Update boot parameters defination
  x86: Introduce helpers for getting RSDP address
  x86: Always try to fill acpi_rsdp_addr in boot params
  crashdump/x86: Use new introduce helper for getting RSDP
