kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.

is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
initially work for you. As of this writing the exact hardware

This builds a kernel image that is capable of running at the

alignment restrictions, and this feature is a superset of

16k-aligned base address. The kernel is linked as a
position-independent executable (PIE) and contains dynamic relocations
which are processed early in the bootup process.
One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel
must live at a different physical address than the primary
kernel.
Note: If CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, then the kernel runs from the address
it has been loaded at and the compile time physical addresses

Select the kernel logical page size. Increasing the page size
will reduce software overhead at each page boundary, allow
hardware prefetch mechanisms to be more effective, and allow
larger dma transfers increasing IO efficiency and reducing
overhead. However the utilization of memory will increase.
For example, each cached file will using a multiple of the
page size to hold its contents and the difference between the
end of file and the end of page is wasted.
Some dedicated systems, such as software raid serving with
accelerated calculations, have shown significant increases.
If you configure a 64 bit kernel for 64k pages but the
processor does not support them, then the kernel will simulate
them with 4k pages, loading them on demand, but with the
reduced software overhead and larger internal fragmentation.

On Book3S 32 (603+), DBATs are used to map kernel text and rodata RO.
Smaller is the alignment, greater is the number of necessary DBATs.
On 8xx, large pages (512kb or 8M) are used to map kernel linear
memory. Aligning to 8M reduces TLB misses as only 8M pages are used
in that case. If PIN_TLB is selected, it must be aligned to 8M as
8M pages will be pinned.

help
The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
pages. This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
keeps in the memory allocator. If you need to allocate very large
blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
increase this value.
This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
a value of 11 means that the largest free memory block is 2^10 pages.
The page size is not necessarily 4KB. For example, on 64-bit
systems, 64KB pages can be enabled via CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES. Keep
this in mind when choosing a value for this option.

This option enables the kernel to be loaded at any page aligned
