Paul Mackerras 66faf9845a [PATCH] ppc64: tell firmware about kernel capabilities
On pSeries systems, according to the platform architecture specs, we are
supposed to be supplying a structure to firmware that tells firmware about
our capabilities, such as which version of the data structures that
describe available memory we are expecting to see.  The way we end up
having to supply this data structure is a bit gross, since it was designed
for AIX and doesn't suit us very well.  This patch adds the code to supply
this data structure to the firmware.

To extract the kernel vmlinux, System.map, .config or initrd from the zImage binary:

objcopy -j .kernel:vmlinux -O binary zImage vmlinux.gz
objcopy -j .kernel:System.map -O binary zImage System.map.gz
objcopy -j .kernel:.config -O binary zImage config.gz
objcopy -j .kernel:initrd -O binary zImage.initrd initrd.gz
