------- Comment #7 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-11-26 23:50 ------- The patch in comment #1 has no problem for x86_64. But there is some problem for x86_32 if the system supports the NUMA architecture. In NUMA architecture the 32-bit OS will search SRAT table before initializing bootmem memory allocator and SRAT table is gotten by calling get_memcfg_from_srat, in which the function of acpi_find_rsdp. Because the function of acpi_os_map_memory is used in the ACPICA code and paging_init should be called before using acpi_os_map_memory, the patch in comment #1 will have some problems. If the checksum should be verified for RSDP , we can modify the patch #4 for getting the rsdp with valid checksum. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
