Subject: [PATCH 0 of 3] KEXEC fixes
Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2011 17:36:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1324575382@andrewcoop.uk.xensource.com> (raw)

This set of 3 patches contain fixes and functional improvements to the
kexec path in Xen.  The first two have already been posted to the list
individually but are presented here as a group.

Patch 1 contains an implementation of a new hypercall which will not
truncate 64bit pointers to 32bit when in compatability mode.

Patch 2 changes the per cpu crash notes to be allocated on boot.

Patch 3 implements logic to allow Xen to specifically allocate the
crash notes and console buffer in lower memory because if 64/32bit issues
on machines with large quantities of RAM.
