Revision 216705d2720dedf630b55d641737f430ead0c228 authored by Hugh Dickins on 02 July 2008, 21:48:03 UTC, committed by Ingo Molnar on 03 July 2008, 06:19:18 UTC
Fedora reports that mem_init()'s zap_low_mappings(), extended to SMP in 61165d7a035f6571c7576e7f51e7230157724c8d x86: fix app crashes after SMP resume causes 32-bit Intel Mac machines to reboot very early when booting with EFI. The EFI code appears to manage low mappings for itself when needed; but like many before it, confuses PSE with PAE. So it has only been mapping half the space it needed when PSE but not PAE. This remained unnoticed until we moved the SMP zap_low_mappings() before efi_enter_virtual_mode(). Presumably could have been noticed years ago if anyone ran a UP kernel on such machines?
