Subject: Re: [PATCH] VT-d: improve RMRR validity checking
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 2010 14:57:25 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <hjk80f$3ph$2@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <C7835076.74F1%keir.fraser@eu.citrix.com>
How about a new config option "vtd=enforce" (if you think of selinux you
know where that comes from) for the most secure "panic on deviations" to
keep "force" working even with buggy BIOSes (which seem to be the
majority right now) and to avoid problems for folks currently using
"force" with something else in mind rather than their systems panicing
after installing a broken BIOS...
I'd also love to see some initiative from Intel to actually make vendors
offer proper BIOSes to support the technology they are advertising (and
with advertising I do not mean vt-d specifically but advertising a
chipset and at the same time Intel saying vt-d is supported on this
chipset).
best regards,
Christian
