[PATCH v5 3/5] powerpc: kexec_file: Add buffer hand-over support for the next kernel

Thiago Jung Bauermann bauerman at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Wed Sep 14 17:54:48 PDT 2016


The buffer hand-over mechanism allows the currently running kernel to pass
data to kernel that will be kexec'd via a kexec segment. The second kernel
can check whether the previous kernel sent data and retrieve it.

This is the architecture-specific part.
