They were very supportive and suggested I bring the discussion to lkml so others could get involved. Not that I disagre with utilising the PAT, but I don't see anything in this code to deal with the widespread PAT indexing erratum in Intel's processors. I don't have the errata sheets here, but it definitely affected the PIIIs and I think also some P4s. (Large pages ignoring PAT index bit 2, or something like that.) /Mikael - 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/ | ||||||||||
