Description Bhupesh Sharma 2019-01-14 19:17:09 UTC

Description of problem:

Add kexec_file_load support in kexec-tools. AKashi has submitted a kexec-tools patch upstream which I have reviewed and tested on hpe-apollo arm64 systems:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2019-January/022219.html

Make sure that fedora kexe-tools support the same as well

Expected results:

kexec -s -l works on aarch64 systems as well. For example a command line like the following:

# kexec -s -l /boot/vmlinuz-`uname -r` --initrd=/boot/initramfs-`uname -r`.img --reuse-cmdline
