2019-04-26s390/ipl: provide uapi header for list directed IPLMartin Schwidefsky1-1/+1
The IPL parameter block is used as an interface between Linux and the machine to query and change the boot device and boot options. To be able to create IPL parameter block in user space and pass it as segment to kexec provide an uapi header with proper structure definitions for the block.

2019-04-26s390/ipl: make ipl_info less confusingMartin Schwidefsky1-4/+4
The ipl_info union in struct ipl_parameter_block has the same name as the struct ipl_info. This does not help while reading the code and the union in struct ipl_parameter_block does not need to be named. Drop the name from the union.

2018-10-09s390: move ipl block and cmd line handling to early boot phaseVasily Gorbik1-0/+36
To distinguish zfcpdump case and to be able to parse some of the kernel command line arguments early (e.g. mem=) ipl block retrieval and command line construction code is moved to the early boot phase. "memory_end" is set up correctly respecting "mem=" and hsa_size in case of the zfcpdump. arch/s390/boot/string.c is introduced to provide string handling and command line parsing functions to early boot phase code for the compressed kernel image case.
