Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] RISC-V: Fix a few kexec_file_load(2) failures
From: Petr Tesarik <petr.tesarik.ext@...wei.com>
The kexec_file_load(2) syscall does not work at least in some kernel
builds. For details see the relevant section in this blog post:
https://sigillatum.tesarici.cz/2023-07-21-state-of-riscv64-kdump.html
This patch series handles an additional relocation types, removes the need
to implement a Global Offset Table (GOT) for the purgatory and fixes the
placement of initrd.
Changelog
=========
Changes from v1:
- Replace memcmp() with a for loop.
- Drop handling of 16-bit add/subtract relocations. They were used only
by alternatives in strcmp(), which was referenced only by string.o.
- Add the initrd placement fix.
Petr Tesarik (1):
riscv/purgatory: do not link with string.o and its dependencies
Torsten Duwe (2):
riscv/kexec: handle R_RISCV_CALL_PLT relocation type
riscv/kexec: load initrd high in available memory
