Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: acpi map table fix
Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2005 09:45:09 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051208041509.GA4841@in.ibm.com> (raw)



o Memory till end_pfn_map has been directly mapped. So all the memory
  references to the last page (represented by end_pfn_map) should be
  valid.

o I run into problem with kdump when I use memmap=exactmap option and also
  pass memmap=X#Y to directly map acpi tables. ACPI initialization in second
  kernel fails because some of the valid ACPI memory is not accessible.

o /proc/iomem shows ACPI tables at c7fcb940-c7fcf7ff : ACPI Tables. Here
  end_pfn_map is set to c7fcf000. But c7fcf700 should also be a valid access.
