Subject: Re: [PATCH] Fix e820 end address with EFI
Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2009 13:44:54 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49AAD7A6.5050106@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <86802c440902282142p14f623b8td8a88600ff2a6bbe@mail.gmail.com>

With the kernel that now boots (when max_pfn is set to = last e820 address regardless of type), efi_enter_virtual_mode() does not call efi_ioremap(). Maybe efi_ioremap() is what needs fixing? I should mention this is a regression. 2.6.26 worked, 2.6.27 does not, and seems like things stopped working in 2.6.26-git1. I will check to see if efi_ioremap() used to be called with a 2.6.26 kernel on this hardware and see where the mapped addresses were. Maybe I can verify efi_ioremap() is actually broken.

Brian
