"Easiest" way around this would probably be to stash the address map after ExitBootServices() and compare it at SetVirtualAddressMap() time, then take the widest boundaries and trim the e820 map to match. This is obviously dependent upon the system not allocating anything further after that, but it seems safest. The worst case is finding the firmware writing over bits of the kernel. -- Matthew Garrett | mj...@srcf.ucam.org -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
