49 * When kexec transitions to the new kernel there is a one-to-one
50 * mapping between physical and virtual addresses. On processors
51 * where you can disable the MMU this is trivial, and easy. For
52 * others it is still a simple predictable page table to setup.
54 * In that environment kexec copies the new kernel to its final
55 * resting place. This means I can only support memory whose
56 * physical address can fit in an unsigned long. In particular
57 * addresses where (pfn << PAGE_SHIFT) > ULONG_MAX cannot be handled.
58 * If the assembly stub has more restrictive requirements
59 * KEXEC_SOURCE_MEMORY_LIMIT and KEXEC_DEST_MEMORY_LIMIT can be
60 * defined more restrictively in <asm/kexec.h>.
62 * The code for the transition from the current kernel to the
63 * the new kernel is placed in the control_code_buffer, whose size
64 * is given by KEXEC_CONTROL_CODE_SIZE. In the best case only a single
65 * page of memory is necessary, but some architectures require more.
66 * Because this memory must be identity mapped in the transition from
67 * virtual to physical addresses it must live in the range
68 * 0 - TASK_SIZE, as only the user space mappings are arbitrarily
71 * The assembly stub in the control code buffer is passed a linked list
72 * of descriptor pages detailing the source pages of the new kernel,
73 * and the destination addresses of those source pages. As this data
74 * structure is not used in the context of the current OS, it must
77 * The code has been made to work with highmem pages and will use a
78 * destination page in its final resting place (if it happens
79 * to allocate it). The end product of this is that most of the
80 * physical address space, and most of RAM can be used.
82 * Future directions include:
83 * - allocating a page table with the control code buffer identity
84 * mapped, to simplify machine_kexec and make kexec_on_panic more
89 * KIMAGE_NO_DEST is an impossible destination address..., for
90 * allocating pages whose destination address we do not care about.
