These patches can be applied on top of Geoff's Kexec [1] and Takahiro's
Kdump [2] patches and are available in my tree [3].
First two patches are for purgatory. 1st patch is a very important fix
for sha verification. 2nd patch is good to have.
Rest all patches are fixes and addon for ARM64.
These patchset adds three extra command line options for ARM64.
--page-offset: Needed for binary image only. Default value is
0xfffffe0000000000.
--port-lsr: It is UART's Line status register address. Normally for a
UART based on 8250, 16450 or 16550 should have value as --port's value +
0x14.
--port-lsr-val: It is the SET value of LSR register for TX buffer to be
empty. Normally for above UARTs it should be 0x60
