Re: [RFC:PATCH 00/03] powerpc: Expose BookE debug registers through extended ptrace interface

a feature flag, but it would be equivalent to num_condition_regs 0. I don't have a strong opinion either way. The current GDB code we have here uses num_condition_regs 0 to discover if DVCs are supported, so a PPC_DEBUG_FEATURE constant for that is redundant IMHO. -- []'s Thiago Jung

[PATCH 1/8] kexec_file: Remove unused members from struct kexec_buf.

[PATCH 0/8] kexec_file_load implementation for PowerPC

intend to submit shortly. This code is based on kexec-tools, but with many modifications to adapt it to the kernel environment and facilities. Except the purgatory, which only has minimal changes. Thiago Jung Bauermann (8): kexec_file: Remove unused members from struct kexec_buf. kexec_file

[PATCH 3/8] powerpc: Factor out relocation code from module_64.c to elf_util_64.c.

The kexec_file_load system call needs to relocate the purgatory, so factor out the module relocation code so that it can be shared. This patch's purpose is to move the ELF relocation logic from apply_relocate_add to elf_util_64.c with as few changes as possible. The following changes were needed:

[PATCH 2/8] kexec_file: Generalize kexec_add_buffer.

Allow architectures to specify different memory walking functions for kexec_add_buffer. Intel uses iomem to track reserved memory ranges, but PowerPC uses the memblock subsystem. Also, factor kexec_locate_mem_hole out of kexec_add_buffer. It will be used by the PowerPC kexec_file_load

[PATCH 8/8] powerpc: Add purgatory for kexec_file_load implementation.

This purgatory implementation comes from kexec-tools, almost unchanged. The only changes were that the sha256_regions global variable was renamed to sha_regions to match what kexec_file_load expects, and to use the sha256.c file from x86's purgatory to avoid adding yet another SHA-256

[PATCH 6/8] powerpc: Implement kexec_file_load.

Adds the machinery needed by kexec_file_load, except actually loading a kernel and initrd. elf64_apply_relocate_add was extended to support relative symbols. This is necessary because before relocation, the module loading mechanism adjusts Elf64_Sym.st_value to point to the absolute memory

When apply_relocate_add is called, modules are already loaded at their final location in memory so Elf64_Shdr.sh_addr can be used for accessing the section contents as well as the base address for relocations. This is not the case for kexec's purgatory, because it will only be copied to its final
