We introduced KHO into Linux: A framework that allows Linux to pass metadata and memory across kexec from Linux to Linux. KHO reuses fdt as file format and shares a lot of the same properties of firmware-to- Linux boot formats: It needs a stable, documented ABI that allows for forward and backward compatibility as well as versioning. As first user of KHO, we introduced memblock which can now preserve memory ranges reserved with reserve_mem command line options contents across kexec, so you can use the post-kexec kernel to read traces from the pre-kexec kernel. This patch adds memblock schemas similar to "device" device tree ones to a new kho bindings directory. This allows us to force contributors to document the data that moves across KHO kexecs and catch breaking change during review.
