[patch 40/67] i386 bootioremap / kexec fix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: keith mannthey <[email protected]>

With CONFIG_PHYSICAL_START set to a non default values the i386
boot_ioremap code calculated its pte index wrong and users of boot_ioremap
have their areas incorrectly mapped (for me SRAT table not mapped during
early boot).  This patch removes the addr < BOOT_PTE_PTRS constraint.
