At first glance it looked like these options were enabled for linux-kvm because they showed up as being set to "yes" under the "debian.master/config/config.common.ubuntu" file. However, my grepping was too narrow because grepping for "CONFIG_KEXEC=" didn't show the following lines:
debian.kvm/config/config.common.ubuntu:# CONFIG_KEXEC is not set debian.kvm/config/config.common.ubuntu:# CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE is not set For derivative kernels like linux-kvm, if it's set in the debian.master but unset in debian.kvm, then it's unset for the package. Sent a patch to the ML to enable it for linux-kvm: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2019-April/100350.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-kvm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799791 Title: linux-kvm: please support kexec Status in linux-kvm package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux-kvm source package in Cosmic: Confirmed Bug description: linux-kvm doesn't support kexec. Adding support for kexec would enable other interesting uses of linux- kvm, such as for a linuxboot embedded kernel in kvm. Please enable CONFIG_KEXEC=y, CONFIG_KEXEC_FILE=y in linux-kvm.
