From c8168b4faf1d62cbb320a3e518ad31cdd567cb05 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Youling Tang Date: Thu, 2 Oct 2025 22:39:08 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] LoongArch: Automatically disable kaslr if boot from kexec_file Automatically disable kaslr when the kernel loads from kexec_file. kexec_file loads the secondary kernel image to a non-linked address, inherently providing KASLR-like randomization. However, on LoongArch where System RAM may be non-contiguous, enabling KASLR for the second kernel may relocate it to an invalid memory region and cause a boot failure. Thus, we disable KASLR when "kexec_file" is detected in the command line. To ensure compatibility with older kernels loaded via kexec_file, this patch should be backported to stable branches.
