1235 | memory_corruption_check=0/1 [X86] | ||
1236 | Some BIOSes seem to corrupt the first 64k of | ||
1237 | memory when doing things like suspend/resume. | ||
1238 | Setting this option will scan the memory | ||
1239 | looking for corruption. Enabling this will | ||
1240 | both detect corruption and prevent the kernel | ||
1241 | from using the memory being corrupted. | ||
1242 | However, its intended as a diagnostic tool; if | ||
1243 | repeatable BIOS-originated corruption always | ||
1244 | affects the same memory, you can use memmap= | ||
1245 | to prevent the kernel from using that memory. | ||
1246 | |||
1247 | memory_corruption_check_size=size [X86] | ||
