Subject: Re: [PATCH] trim memory not covered by WB MTRRs
Date: Thu, 14 Jun 2007 21:38:21 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4671992D.7060400@macroscoop.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200706071530.51552.jesse.barnes@intel.com>
Thanks for this patch. I was having the exact same symptoms as Justin
Piszcz, on a different, but similar motherboard:
Motherboard: GigaByte GA-G33-DS3R
BIOS rev: F2
Chipset: Intel G33
Memory: 8GB
Distro: Fedora 7 x86_64
Kernel: kernel-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7
Building vanilla 2.6.22-rc4 with your patch solved the problem.
I'm now seeing this in the syslog
***************
**** WARNING: likely BIOS bug
**** MTRRs don't cover all of memory, trimmed 196608 pages
***************
leaving me 7416672 kB of usable memory.
If there's any way I can help with more info or testing,
then let me know.
Thanks,
Pim
