Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Add new file asm/image.h
Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2014 16:07:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403132874.17030.38.camel@smoke> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1403132622.17030.35.camel@smoke>
Add the new file asm/image.h that exports a structure arm64_image_header and
some constants to user space that describe the arm64 image header.
