KEXEC METADATA ABI(9)
💖 Kexec Metadata ABI 💖
okay so bestie, this is the Kexec Metadata ABI(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — manual name folded in near the top, exactly as requested, and we are so back ✨.
The kexec-metadata subtree stores optional metadata about the kexec chain. It is registered via kho_add_subtree, which keeps it independent from the core KHO ABI. The way that works? It allows the metadata format to evolve without affecting other KHO consumers. slay, no cap 💅.
The metadata is stored as a plain C struct rather than FDT format — for simplicity and direct field access. it's giving "simple and direct," and honestly? iconic 🎀.
