I'm trying to kexec/kdump on MPC8548 custom board, but second kernel doesn't
boot. (Custom board's main difference to MPC8548CDS is memory map (CCSR,
PCI-IO addresses), RAM size (1GB), FLASH size. So, I modified mpc8548cds.dts
to boot kernel.)

I followed "mpc85xx kexec howto" (kexec-tools/doc/mpc85xx.txt) instructions.

As boot/kexec/kdump kernel, I used linux-2.6.35 and set below kernel configs.

* "kexec system call (EXPERIMENTAL)" (CONFG_KEXEC)
* "Build a relocatable kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)" (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE)
(CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP, CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE weren't settable on MPC8548CDS.)

As kexec-tools, I used git commit "dbe1163152ef6fca2a1bd22e11e219f58fd40c08"
(I got error on kexec-tools-2.0.2), and cross compiled with -DDEBUG.

As boot parameter, I set "crashkernel=256M@512M". (I also tried other sizes
and @256M combinations.)

---
# cat /proc/cmdline
console=ttyS0,38400 ip=bootp root=/dev/nfs rw crashkernel=256M@512M
---

Then, when I "kexec -l", I got below debug message and seems no problem.

But when I "kexec -e", second kernel doesn't boot and seems stalled.

Also, when I "kexec -p", I got below debug message and seems no problem.

Is there any operation mistakes, or is something not ready on current
kernel/kexec-tools?
Not just kexec, I need to make kdump work on the custom board, but currently
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP, CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE aren't settable on MPC8548. Is there any
plan to make these options settable, or what kind of work I need to do if I
implement by myself?

I would appreciate any help to this.
Thanks,
