Subject: [PATCH v3 4/6] LoongArch/kexec_file: Support loading ELF binary file
From: Youling Tang <tangyouling@...inos.cn>
This patch creates kexec_elf_ops to load ELF binary file for
kexec_file_load() syscall.
However, for `kbuf->memsz` and `kbuf->buf_min`, special handling is required,
and the generic `kexec_elf_load()` cannot be used directly.
$ readelf -l vmlinux
...
Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr
FileSiz MemSiz Flags Align
LOAD 0x0000000000010000 0x9000000000200000 0x9000000000200000
0x0000000002747a00 0x000000000287a0d8 RWE 0x10000
NOTE 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000
0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 R 0x8
phdr->p_paddr should have been a physical address, but it is a virtual
address on the current LoongArch. This will cause kexec_file to fail
when loading the kernel and need to be converted to a physical address.
>From the above MemSiz, it can be seen that 0x287a0d8 has not been aligned.
Although kexec_add_buffer() will perform PAGE_SIZE alignment on kbuf->memsz,
there is still a stampeding in the loaded kernel space and initrd space.
The initrd resolution failed when starting the second kernel.
It can be known from the link script vmlinux.lds.S that,
BSS_SECTION(0, SZ_64K, 8)
. = ALIGN(PECOFF_SEGMENT_ALIGN);
It needs to be aligned according to the SZ_64K size, so that after
alignment, its size is consistent with _kernel_asize.
