Package: kexec-tools
Version: 1:2.0.4-1
Severity: important
File: /sbin/kexec

Dear Maintainer,

after creating my own kernel with CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y (that's not a
debian default) I noticed that the system won't reboot using kexec.

I am getting a black screen/CPU will be halted. The machine will need a
power cycle.

# zgrep 'RANDOMIZE' /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE=y
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE_MAX_OFFSET=0x40000000


Recompiling the same kernel (I tried 3.4.11 and 3.15.4) without

  CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE

will make kexec work again.


I also tested upstream's kexec-tools v2.0.7 to see if this problem is fixed
already in a newer version but it isn't.
