From ef6169c76999e35858291fdcb73ed01e7de37bac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Torsten Duwe Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2023 11:54:01 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] riscv/kexec: load initrd high in available memory commit 49af7a2cd5f678217b8b4f86a29411aebebf3e78 upstream. When initrd is loaded low, the secondary kernel fails like this: INITRD: 0xdc581000+0x00eef000 overlaps in-use memory region This initrd load address corresponds to the _end symbol, but the reservation is aligned on PMD_SIZE, as explained by a comment in setup_bootmem(). It is technically possible to align the initrd load address accordingly, leaving a hole between the end of kernel and the initrd, but it is much simpler to allocate the initrd top-down.
