It *does* get marked reserved: > [ 0.000000] #6 [000009ec00 - 00000f0000] BIOS reserved ... but that doesn't seem to keep the PCI code from assigning anything there. This is a Very Bad thing in general... if we're assigning devices to areas marked reserved, we have a huge problem. -hpa -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
