Re: Improving Performance



Geert,

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools.git
cd kexec-tools
./bootstrap
./configure
make install

It has less build requirements than ARAnyM ;-)



Missing typedefs for __u16, __u32, __be16 and __be32 (the former two being present in /usr/include/asm/types.h but not picked up from there). Patch attached as well - may be harmful on more recent m68k installations.

Untested, yet.

Works - now what's the proper way to invoke kexec to boot into the loaded kernel?

kexec -e will reboot right away with no shufdown. Does kexec (no arguments) perform a regular shutdown? Will this use the machine reset vector to boot, or just run kexec -e instead of halting?

Cheers,

	Michael
