Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] x86/boot: Add xloadflags bits for 5-level kernel checking
Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2019 15:40:56 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190211074056.GB2332@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190125022817.29506-2-bhe@redhat.com>
Add two bits XLF_5LEVEL and XLF_5LEVEL_ENABLED for 5-level kernel.
Bit XLF_5LEVEL indicates if 5-level related code is contained
in this kernel.
Bit XLF_5LEVEL_ENABLED indicates if CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y is set.
They are being used in later patch to check if kexec/kdump kernel
is loaded in right place.
