[PATCH 0/8] kexec build system updates, to allow cross-kexec()ing

[Jeremy Kerr]

Hi all,

This series of patches is aimed at simplifying the kexec build system,
mainly in order to make cross-compilation much easier.

As well as cross-compiling, this makes it possible to separate the
'host' architecture (ie, the arch of the kexec binary built), and the
'target' architecture (ie, the arch of the kernel that we're kexecing).
We can specify these with the standard --host and --target arguments
to configure.

This allows us to kexec a powerpc64 kernel from a powerpc userspace.
x86{,_64} users might find this handy too, but I don't have hardware
to test.

Any comments are most welcome - if you're able to test on your
arch, that would be great too.

Cheers,


Jeremy
