Subject: [PATCH 4/5] xen/i386: reserve Xen pagetables
Date: Thu, 07 May 2009 11:56:44 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A032EEC.30509@goop.org> (raw)
The Xen pagetables are no longer implicitly reserved as part of the other
i386_start_kernel reservations, so make sure we explicitly reserve them.
This prevents them from being released into the general kernel free page
pool and reused.
