help
This option allows you to set the load address of the kernel.
This can be useful if you are on a board which has a small amount
of memory or you wish to reserve some memory at the beginning of
the address space.
- Note that you generally want to keep this value at or above 4k
- (0x1000) as this will allow the kernel to capture NULL pointer
- references.
+ Note that you need to keep this value above 4k (0x1000) as this
+ memory region is used to capture NULL pointer references as well
+ as some core kernel functions.
