Hi, Alex, Horms

Sorry for my late responce.

Yes, I also thik so.
I'll post the new patch.

I'm yet debugging kexec/kdump on HVM.
I have a question, could you give me advice, Horms?
kexec-tool set the new start address to jump there through
relocate_new_kernel.
Which function do the new start address point?

  23 GLOBAL_ENTRY(relocate_new_kernel)
  24         .prologue
  25         alloc r31=ar.pfs,4,0,0,0
  26         .body
  27 .reloc_entry:
  28 {
[snip...
  60         //physical mode code begin
  61         mov b6=in1   <<<<<<<<<< this(in1) address
  62         dep r28=0,in2,61,3      //to physical address
[snip...]
 177 .end_loop:
 178         sync.i                  // for fc.i
 179         ;;
 180         srlz.i
 181         ;;
 182         srlz.d
 183         ;;
 184         br.call.sptk.many b0=b6;;

BTW, xenitp is very useful.
Thanks, Tristan.

Best Regards,

Akio Takebe
