[RFC PATCH 07/35] Make LOAD_OFFSET defined by subarch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Change LOAD_OFFSET so that the kernel has virtual addresses in the elf header fields.

Unlike bare metal kernels, Xen kernels start with virtual address
management turned on and thus the addresses to load to should be
virtual addresses.
