2006-09-26[PATCH] i386: Avoid overwriting the current pgd (V4, i386)Magnus Damm
kexec: Avoid overwriting the current pgd (V4, i386) This patch upgrades the i386-specific kexec code to avoid overwriting the current pgd. Overwriting the current pgd is bad when CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is used to start a secondary kernel that dumps the memory of the previous kernel. The code introduces a new set of page tables. These tables are used to provide an executable identity mapping without overwriting the current pgd. Signed-off-by: Magnus Damm <magnus@valinux.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
