This patch fixs a problem introduced by commit e5d6a55 which make ARM
kexec fails.
Due to that commit, kernel is loaded at a dynamically offset: it computes
extra_size using size of dtb, and load zImage at base + extra_size. When
dtb size small (for example, 0x3000 bytes), kernel will be loaded at
address like 0x60003000. For ARM zImage such address is incorrect.
In kernel code arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S, zImage builds a
temporary page table at (pc & 0xf8000000) + TEXT_OFFSET - 0x4000. The
related instructions sequence is:
mov r4, pc
and r4, r4, #0xf8000000
add r4, r4, #TEXT_OFFSET @ (TEXT_OFFSET == 0x8000 on most platforms)
call cache_on
...
call __armv7_mmu_cache_on
...
call __setup_mmu
sub r3, r4, #16384 @ Page directory size
r3 becomes page table pointer.
When kernel is loaded at 0x60003000, page table is still built at
0x60004000, which destroys kernel.
This patch make extra_size a fix value (0x8000) to avoid the failure.
For the problem commit e5d6a55 tries solve, this patch uses
locate_holes() to find a place can hold initrd and dtb.
Change from v1:

In commit 91f5b9c ("kdump: pass e820 reserved region to 2nd kernel via
e820 table or setup_data"), I made a wrong condition check.
We should only add cmdline for a memory range if --pass-memmap-cmdline
and the range type isn't RANGE_RESERVED.

The code in arch/arm/kexec-zImage-arm.c currently enforces a hard limit
on the maximum size a dtb blob can occupy. This limit is set to 32k,
which is quite low for device tree blobs nowadays.
Get rid of this assumption, and calculate the added size dynamically.
For this, we need to slurp in the dtb file earlier in order to
determine its size, because the memory hole allocation for 'base'
takes this size into account.
For ATAGs, we keep the current value of 32k, which should in fact be
enough.
With this change in place, the 'DTB too large!' error message can go
away. Successfully tested on a AM335x board.

e820 reserved region could be useful in 2nd kernel.
For example, PCI mmconf (extended mode) requires reserved region
otherwise it falls back to legacy mode. The following log is from Cliff
Wickman <cpw@sgi.com>:
PCI: MMCONFIG for domain 1003 [bus 3f-3f] at [mem 0xff0ff00000-0xff0fffffff] (base 0xff0c000000)
[Firmware Bug]: PCI: MMCONFIG at [mem 0x80000000-0x80cfffff] not reserved in ACPI motherboard resources
PCI: not using MMCONFIG
PCI devices on segment 1 (>0) can't fall back to legacy mode, thus
kernel probing fails and device can't be found.
We don't pass reserved region because these regions could be too much
and eat up our very limited kernel command line resource in
memmap=exactmap case.
However now we use e820 map and setup_data to pass memory map to 2nd
kernel and the number of reserved regions should not be a problem any
more.

command line size is restricted by kernel, sometimes memmap=exactmap has
too many memory ranges to pass to cmdline. And also memmap=exactmap and
kASLR doesn't work together.
A better approach, to pass the memory ranges for crash kernel to boot
into, is filling the memory ranges into E820.
boot_params only got 128 slots for E820 map to fit in, when the number of
memory map exceeds 128, use setup_data to pass the rest as extended E820
memory map.
kexec boot could also benefit from setup_data in case E820 memory map
exceeds 128.
Now this new approach becomes default instead of memmap=exactmap.
saved_max_pfn users can specify --pass-memmap-cmdline to use the
exactmap approach.

Later kexec and kdump memory range will be mapped to E820entry. But
currently kexec memory range .end field is exclusive while crash memory
range is inclusive.
Given the fact that the exported proc iomem and sysfs memmap are both
inclusive, change kexec memory range .end to be inclusive. Later the
unified memory range of both kexec and kdump can use the same E820
filling code.

CRASH_MAX_MEMMAP_NR is used as the upper boundary of memmap_p.
Originally memmap_p was used to store RANGE_RAM only. But now we changed
it to store all the types of memory ranges for 2nd kernel, which
includes RANGE_RAM, RANGE_ACPI, RANGE_ACPI_NVS (and RANGE_RESERVED in
the future).
Currently CRASH_MAX_MEMMAP_NR is defined (KEXEC_MAX_SEGMENTS + 2), which
is not enough for memmap_p. It must be increased to a much higher value.
I think 1024 is good enough for storing all memory ranges for 2nd
kernel. So this patch increases CRASH_MAX_MEMMAP_NR to 1024.

This change will be used later:
add_memmap(.., int *nr_memmap, .., int type);
delete_memmap(.., int *nr_memmap, ..);
memmap_p[] is statically allocated for a certain amount. It will be used
later when mapping these memory maps to e820 map.
It's convenient to keep track of the count of memmap_p (nr_memmap) in
add_memmap and delete_memmap, because the counting has already been
taken care of in these two functions.
The original add_memmap() can only add memory range of RANGE_RAM type.
For adding other types of memory range, add another argument for
indicating the type.

which saves quite a few lines of code.
In this routine, if range spawns over lowmem-highmem border, split range
into two. This is needed to get proper virtual address for lowmem part.
Similar thing is already done for x86. Credits to Yadviga Grigorieva

When kASLR is enabled (CONFIG_RANDOMIZED_BASE=y), kernel text mapping
base is randomized. The max base offset of such randomization is
configured at compile time through CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MAX_BASE_OFFSET (by
default 1G).
Currently kexec-tools is using hard code macro X86_64__START_KERNEL_map
(0xffffffff80000000) and X86_64_KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE (512M) to determine
kernel text mapping from kcore's PT_LOAD. With kASLR, the mapping is
changed as the following:
ffffffff80000000 - (ffffffff80000000+CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET)
As Vivek suggested, we can get _stext kernel symbol address from
/proc/kallsyms, and search for kcore's PT_LOAD which contains _stext,
and we can say that this area represents the kernel mapping area.
Let's first use this way to find out kernel text mapping. If failed for
whatever reason, fall back to use the old way.

fill the efi_info struct in setup_header. I just get
the info in kernel exported boot_params data in debugfs.

Not only setup_subarch will get data from debugfs file
boot_params/data, later code for adding efi_info will
also need do same thing. Thus add a common function here
for later use.

In the multiboot header, there is a field, `mem_lower' that is meant to
contain the size of memory starting at zero and ending below 640k.
If your kernel is compiled with CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW non zero
(the usual case), then a hole is inserted into kernel's physical
memory map at zero, so the test to find the size of this region in
kexec/arch/i386/kexec-multiboot-x86.c never succeeds, so the value is
always zero.
On a PC99 architecture, there is always memory at physycal address zero;
assume that a region that starts below 64k actually starts at zero,
and use it for the mem_lower variable.

Currently little-endian ELFDATA is hard-coded in crashdump header.
This lead to a wrong header format if crashdump is generated on BE system.
Set native endianness into ELFDATA field.

Do not call xc_interface_close() if xc_interface_open() failed.
xc_interface_close() crashes if it gets NULL as an argument.
Relevant fix for libxenctrl will be posted too but kexec-tools
should also behave properly.

Xen 4.4 has an improvided kexec hypercall ABI that allows images to be
loaded and executed without any kernel involvement. Use the API
provided by libxc to load images when running in a Xen guest.
Support for loading images via the kexec_load syscall in non-upstream
("classic") Xen kernels is no longer supported.

This patch provides support for the new Power PC litte endian (LE) mode. The
LE mode only differs in the way the instructions and data are stored in memory
thus there is no real need to duplicate the ppc64 code.
However some compilation's options, especially for the purgatory, differ
between little and big endian mode's support. A new "SUBARCH" build variable
is introduced which is currently only used for PPC64 to specify the
endianness.
Another set of changes in this patch is fixing minor endianess issues in the
ppc64 code and fix an alignment issue raised on Power7 little endian mode.
Among these fixes, the check on the kernel binary endianess is removed,
since we can imagine kexecing a LE kernel from a BE environment, as far as
the specified root filesystem and initrd file are containing the right
binaries.
This patch depends on the patch "kexec/ppc64: use common architecture
fs2dt.c file" I sent earlier on the kexec mailing list.

Following the commit 'b3c2962 fs2dt: Add a generic copy of fs2dt' which
introduced a generic fs2dt file, this patch is removing the ppc64
architecture's one.
Tests have been done successfully on Power 7 plateform.

Currently, kexec on arm assumes that it's safe to place binary images
such as atags, dtb or initrd at an estimated offset after the load
address. That estimated offset is set to 4 times the size of the
compressed image, hence assuming a minimum compression ratio of 1:4.
While that assumption matches what the in-kernel compressors are able to
achive, it doesn't take into account the .bss section the kernel image
carries, and which can grow to arbitrary sizes while not accounting to
the compressed image size.
After decompression, and before the execution of the compressed kernel,
the .bss area is initialized to zeros, trampeling over the binary images
in case they happen to live in that piece of memory.
Unfortunately, determining the full image size is not easiliy possible
at runtime, as it would include doing all possible ways of
decompression and then walk the ELF sections by hand.
For now, allow users to override the static offset with a new, arm
specific command line argument. Users are supposed to set this, and
determine a sane value by using 'arm-linux-size vmlinux'.

If the primary kernel doesn't use an initrd,
we may not have linux,initrd-* entries in the
device-tree, and hence the initial flat tree
may not contain them.
Make sure we add the entries in the dtb if the
second kernel needs an initrd.
