Subject: [PATCH 19/20] x86_64: Extend bzImage protocol for relocatable bzImage
Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 12:54:00 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070307072400.GT23412@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070307065703.GA23412@in.ibm.com>



o Extend the bzImage protocol (same as i386) to allow bzImage loaders to
  load the protected mode kernel at non-1MB address. Now protected mode
  component is relocatable and can be loaded at non-1MB addresses.

o As of today kdump uses it to run a second kernel from a reserved memory
  area.
