Subject: Re: [PATCH] reserve end-of-conventional-memory to 1MB, 64-bit, use paravirt_enabled
Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2008 20:12:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080304191228.GA12403@mailshack.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080304185742.GA12193@mailshack.com>
Jeremy Fitzhardinge pointed out that looking at the boot_params
struct to determine if the system is running in a paravirtual
environment is not reliable for the Xen case, currently. He also
points out that there already exists a function to determine if
the system is running in a paravirtual environment. So let's use
that instead. This gets rid of the preprocessor test too.

Same, for 64 bit.
Greetings,
Alexander
