Subject: [PATCH 1/2] kexec: Add quick kexec support for kernel
Date:   Fri, 14 Aug 2020 01:52:38 -0400
Message-ID: <20200814055239.47348-1-sangyan@huawei.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

In normal kexec, relocating kernel may cost 5 ~ 10 seconds, to
copy all segments from vmalloced memory to kernel boot memory,
because of disabled mmu.

We introduce quick kexec to save time of copying memory as above,
just like kdump(kexec on crash), by using reserved memory
"Quick Kexec".

Constructing quick kimage as the same as crash kernel,
then simply copy all segments of kimage to reserved memroy.

We also add this support in syscall kexec_load using flags
of KEXEC_QUICK.
