Hi Mark,

on my Lenovo V130 the patch works. Now I'm able to boot the current kernel again, without the need to remove the radeon and amdgpu driver (https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=159276382718317&w=2)

Thanks and best regards,
Sven

Hi Kastus,

Please don't have technical discussions on misc@; some developers,
like me, only read it sporadically.  The tech@ list is a much better
place.

The problem with your approach is that you allocate memory at a fixed
address, and we can't be sure that memory is available.  We may have
to extend the amount of memory we allocate such that larger kernels
fit.  The diff below bumps it from 32MB to 64MB.  Does this work for
you?
