Subject: kexec on SMP mips64?

Hi all,

We're starting work on an embedded highly-available product using dual 
Octeon cpus, and I'm looking into the possibility of using kexec/kdump 
as a "flight recorder" to dump fault information to a persistant storage 
location.

I saw the patch adding initial support for kexec, but I was curious 
about the current status.  Is anyone using kexec for mips64 SMP systems? 
  Is it known to be broken?  I'm just trying to get a feel for how much 
work might be involved.

Thanks,

Chris
