We can't access memory after initram completes? Global variables are just memory addresses. One clearly can not access them before memory is available - but why can't we access them after memory is up? >The stack switching is a processor > dependent operation because it has to be coupled with disabling CAR. Okay - can you elaborate on what those dependencies are? Is there a phase where we can access CAR but not main memory? -Kevin -- coreboot mailing list [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
