[2/3] [kexec-tools] Pass vmcoreinfo's address and size
The patch is for kexec-tools-testing-20070330.
(http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/horms/kexec-tools/)
kexec command gets the address and size of the vmcoreinfo data from
/sys/kernel/vmcoreinfo, and passes them to the second kernel through
ELF header of /proc/vmcore. When the second kernel is booting, the
kernel gets them from the ELF header and creates vmcoreinfo's PT_NOTE
segment into /proc/vmcore.
Thanks
