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]
1248 By default it checks for corruption in the low
1249 64k, making this memory unavailable for normal
1250 use. Use this parameter to scan for
1251 corruption in more or less memory.
1252
1253 memory_corruption_check_period=seconds [X86]
1254 By default it checks for corruption every 60
1255 seconds. Use this parameter to check at some
1256 other rate. 0 disables periodic checking.
