Hi Nan hai, 

sorry for not responding sooner.

I have take a look at your patch with an eye to including it into 
kexec-tools-testing. It does seem like a good feature.

Below is an updated version of the patch that cleans up your
implementation a little. In particular.

* update_loaded_segments() returns -1 on error, 0 on success
  - amongst other things the previous incarnation could return nothing
    at all in once case.
* else { if () { ; } } -> else if () { ; }
* < 80 columns wide
* removed trailing whitespace

Is it ok to apply this incarntation of the patch?
I can make my changes a second patch if you prefer.

* Incremental version of above patch
* Include kexec-ia64.h in kexec-elf-ia64.c for update_loaded_segments()
