From 946f2ee5c7312e8acac4f3ab6629e7e2d36a3646 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arjan van de Ven Date: Fri, 7 Apr 2006 19:49:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i386/x86-64: Check that MCFG points to an e820 reserved area This patch introduces a user for the e820_all_mapped function: There have been several machines that don't have a working MMCONFIG, often because of a buggy MCFG table in the ACPI bios. This patch adds a simple sanity check that detects a whole bunch of these cases, and when it detects it, linux now boots rather than crash-and-burns. The accuracy of this detection can in principle be improved if there was a "is this entire range in e820 with THIS attribute", but no such function exist and the complexity needed for this is not really worth it; this simple check already catches most cases anyway.
