Subject: [PATCH 06/13] kexec: New syscall kexec_file_load() declaration
Date: Tue,  3 Jun 2014 09:06:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1401800822-27425-7-git-send-email-vgoyal@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1401800822-27425-1-git-send-email-vgoyal@redhat.com>

This is the new syscall kexec_file_load() declaration/interface. I have
reserved the syscall number only for x86_64 so far. Other architectures
(including i386) can reserve syscall number when they enable the support
for this new syscall.
