Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2008 16:35:23 +0200 From: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@...e.de> To: x86@...nel.org Cc: vgoyal@...hat.com, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, yhlu.kernel@...il.com, Bernhard Walle <bwalle@...e.de> Subject: [PATCH 1/3] e820_update_range(): Strip size of original region This patch fixes a bug in e820_update_range(): Previously, if a region was partially covered, then e820_update_range() only added a new E820 range but didn't update the end/size of the previous range. That lead to duplicate covering of a region. Patch tested on i386 and x86-64 with patch that uses e820_update_range() to limit the E820 map when "mem" parameter is specified on the command line.
