Actually, there is a second related bug which I've only just got to the bottom of, and haven't had time to fix yet.

The end of the chosen kexec region (0xa0200000 + 0x0c000000) overlaps with the bottom of the Xen image. ~Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org https://lists.xenproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen-devel
