From 3d345e3fc9e9177deb7c82e5c79e32d77eb63cce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2005 14:57:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kexec: x86: add CONFIG_PYSICAL_START For one kernel to report a crash another kernel has created we need to have 2 kernels loaded simultaneously in memory. To accomplish this the two kernels need to built to run at different physical addresses. This patch adds the CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START option to the x86 kernel so we can do just that. You need to know what you are doing and the ramifications are before changing this value, and most users won't care so I have made it depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED bzImage kernels will work and run at a different address when compiled with this option but they will still load at 1MB. If you need a kernel loaded at a different address as well you need to boot a vmlinux.
