Depending on the toolchain (here: gcc-12, binutils-2.40) the
relocation entries for function calls are no longer R_RISCV_CALL, but
R_RISCV_CALL_PLT. When trying kexec_load_file on such kernels, it will
fail with
kexec_image: Unknown rela relocation: 19
kexec_image: Error loading purgatory ret=-8
The binary code at the call site remains the same, so tell
arch_kexec_apply_relocations_add() to handle _PLT alike.

R_RISCV_CALL has already been deprecated, and replaced by R_RISCV_CALL_PLT.
See Enum 18-19 in Table 3. Relocation types from
https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/blob/master/riscv-elf.adoc
.
It was deprecated in ("Deprecated R_RISCV_CALL, prefer
R_RISCV_CALL_PLT")

It's not been all that longer than a week & you're in patchwork so you
won't be forgotten, but I noticed a complaint when I went looking on
patchwork about your fixes tag:
Commit: f28b81e30b4b ("riscv: relocate R_RISCV_CALL_PLT in kexec_file")
Fixes tag: fixes: 838b3e28488f702 ("Load purgatory in kexec_file")
Has these problem(s):
- Subject does not match target commit subject
Just use
git log -1 --format='Fixes: %h ("%s")'
The fixes tag should be:
Fixes: 838b3e28488f ("RISC-V: Load purgatory in kexec_file")
Note the capital F & the missed RISC-V: prefix, checkpatch should have
complained about this.
Checkpatch also complains that your suse email in the Signoff doesn't
match the lst.de email that you used to send the patch (IOW you're
missing a From: header that send-email would add).
Could you fix those things up please & I suppose you can take the
opportunity to make the changes that Li Zhengyu suggested to the commit
message itself at the same time.
Thanks,
Conor.

Turns out it did get forgotten, or more accurately, marked as "Changes
Requested".

Would you mind resending this with the Fixes & Signoff corrections?
Thanks,
