   4 Subject: MIPS: Kexec: Enhance the support
   5
   6 Changes:
   7   o Print more information in machine_kexec() for debugging
   8     E.g. with this information, the kexec_start_address has been found
   9     it was wrong with 64bit kernel / o32 kexec-tools. Which must be
  10     fixed later.
  11   o Link relocate_kernel.S to a section for future extension
  12     This allows more functions can be added for the kexec relocation
  13     part even written in C. to add code into that section, you just need
  14     to mark your function or data with __kexec or
  15     __attribute__((__section__(".__kexec.relocate")))
  16
  17 TODO:
  18
  19 1. Make 64bit kernel / o32|n32|64 kexec-tools works
  20
  21 Fix the user-space kexec-tools, seems the tool only work for 32bit
  22 machine. So, we need to add 64bit support for it. The address of the
  23 entry point(kexec_start_address) is wrong and make the "kexec -e" fail.
  24 the real entry point must be read from the new kernel image by the
  25 user-space kexec-tools, otherwise, it will not work.  The above 64bit
  26 support tested is 64bit kernel with o32 user-space kexec-tools. The root
  27 cause may be the different definition of virt_to_phys() and
  28 phys_to_virt() in the kexec-tools and kernel space for 64bit system /
  29 o32 kernel.

  33 2. Pass the arguments from kexec-tools to the new kernel image
  34
  35 Please refer to: "MIPS: Loongson: Kexec: Pass parameters to new kernel"
