Subject: [PATCH v7 10/12] x86: add xloadflags bit for efi runtime support on kexec
Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2013 18:02:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387533742-18018-11-git-send-email-dyoung@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1387533742-18018-1-git-send-email-dyoung-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

Old kexec-tools can not load new kernel. The reason is kexec-tools do not fill
efi_info in x86 setup header previously, thus efi failed to initialize.
In new kexec-tools it will by default fill efi_info and pass other efi required
infomation to 2nd kernel so kexec kernel efi initialization can succeed finally.

To prevent from breaking userspace, add a new xloadflags bit so kexec-tools
can check the flag and switch to old logic.

changelog:
Matt: +&& defined(CONFIG_KEXEC)
      improve patch description.
HPA: document the flag.
