From 92be3d6bdf2cb34972ab50e12ad4da1076e690da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Huang Ying Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2008 09:48:08 +0800 Subject: kexec/i386: allocate page table pages dynamically Impact: save .text size when kexec is built in but not loaded This patch adds an architecture specific struct kimage_arch into struct kimage. The pointers to page table pages used by kexec are added to struct kimage_arch. The page tables pages are dynamically allocated in machine_kexec_prepare instead of statically from BSS segment. This will save up to 20k memory when kexec image is not loaded.
