I'm puzzled by the use of "a generic piece of memory" to store "persistent" things (Perhaps this is made clear in the 17 parts of the patch? I haven't read them yet). On x86 f/w typically clears all of memory on reset ... so you only get persistence if you use kexec to get from the old kernel to the new one. -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
