| 2006-09-26 | [PATCH] Avoid overwriting the current pgd (V4, x86_64) | Magnus Damm | |
| kexec: Avoid overwriting the current pgd (V4, x86_64) This patch upgrades the x86_64-specific kexec code to avoid overwriting the current pgd. Overwriting the current pgd is bad when CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is used to start a secondary kernel that dumps the memory of the previous kernel. The code introduces a new set of page tables. These tables are used to provide an executable identity mapping without overwriting the current pgd. Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <magnus@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> | |||
| 2005-06-25 | [PATCH] kexec: x86_64 kexec implementation | Eric W. Biederman | |
| This is the x86_64 implementation of machine kexec. 32bit compatibility support has been implemented, and machine_kexec has been enhanced to not care about the changing internal kernel paget table structures.
