arm64/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common
kernel/Kconfig.kexec. Utilize the common options and provide
the ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the
equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.

config KEXEC
depends on PM_SLEEP_SMP

bool "kexec system call"
help
kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.

config KEXEC_FILE
bool "kexec file based system call"
select KEXEC_CORE
select HAVE_IMA_KEXEC if IMA
help
This is new version of kexec system call. This system call is
file based and takes file descriptors as system call argument
for kernel and initramfs as opposed to list of segments as
accepted by previous system call.

config KEXEC_SIG

help
Select this option to verify a signature with loaded kernel
image. If configured, any attempt of loading a image without
valid signature will fail.

In addition to that option, you need to enable signature
verification for the corresponding kernel image type being
loaded in order for this to work.

config CRASH_DUMP
bool "Build kdump crash kernel"
help
Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should
be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are
loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially
reserved region and then later executed after a crash by
kdump/kexec.
