Kexec is a fastboot mechanism which allows booting a Linux kernel from the
|
|
|
|
|
context of already running kernel without going through BIOS. BIOS can be very
|
|
|
|
|
time consuming especially on the big servers with lots of peripherals. This can
|
|
|
|
|
save a lot of time for developers who end up booting a machine numerous times."
