Subject: [PATCH] x86/kexec: Make kexec work in 5-level paging mode
Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2018 14:08:45 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180129110845.26633-1-kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com> (raw)
I've missed that we need to change relocate_kernel() to set CR4.LA57
flag if the kernel has 5-level paging enabled.
I avoided to use ifdef CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL here and inferred if we need to
enabled 5-level paging from previous CR4 value. This way the code is
ready for boot-time switching between paging modes.
Fixes: 77ef56e4f0fb ("x86: Enable 5-level paging support via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y")
