Good idea. The patch below implements your suggestion. This has a consequence for patch 5/6 in this series, because it makes this code be used in the path of the kexec_file_load and kexec_load syscalls. In the latter case, there's a call to copy_from_user and thus kmap_atomic can't be used. I can change the patch to use kmap_atomic if state->from_kernel is true and kmap otherwise, but perhaps this is one more hint that patch 5/6 is not a very good idea after all. -- []'s Thiago Jung Bauermann IBM Linux Technology Center Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] kexec_file: Add mechanism to update kexec segments. kexec_update_segment allows a given segment in kexec_image to have its contents updated. This is useful if the current kernel wants to send information to the next kernel that is up-to-date at the time of reboot.
