//! A Linux kernel image loading crate.
//!
//! This crate offers support for loading raw ELF (vmlinux), compressed
//! big zImage (bzImage) and PE (Image) kernel images.
//! ELF support includes the Linux and PVH boot protocols.
//! Support for any other kernel image format can be added by implementing
//! the [`KernelLoader`] and [`BootConfigurator`].
//!
//! # Platform support
//!
//! - `x86_64`
//! - `ARM64`
//!
//! # Example - load an ELF kernel and configure boot params with the PVH protocol
//!
//! This example shows how to prepare a VM for booting with an ELF kernel, following the PVH
//! boot protocol.
//!
//! ```rust
