Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2006 17:08:51 +0100 (CET) Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 1222 Lines: 35 From: "Aaron Durbin" Fix partial page check in e820_register_active_regions to ensure partial pages are not being marked as active in the memory pool. Signed-off-by: Aaron Durbin Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen --- This was causing a machine to reboot w/ an area in the e820 that was less than the page size because the upper address was being use to mark a hole as active in the memory pool. arch/x86_64/kernel/e820.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) Index: linux/arch/x86_64/kernel/e820.c =================================================================== --- linux.orig/arch/x86_64/kernel/e820.c +++ linux/arch/x86_64/kernel/e820.c @@ -278,7 +278,7 @@ e820_register_active_regions(int nid, un >> PAGE_SHIFT; /* Skip map entries smaller than a page */ - if (ei_startpfn > ei_endpfn) + if (ei_startpfn >= ei_endpfn) continue; /* Check if end_pfn_map should be updated */ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
