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.

I built a test kernel from the linux-kvm repo. This repo already has those two options enabled:
https:/ /paste. ubuntu. com/p/b89KnWhdq q/
The test kernel can be downloaded from: kernel. ubuntu. com/~jsalisbury /lp1799791
