From ceee88223047749ad683d397b19904c3dfb6adeb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2006 19:37:12 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] x86_64: Recover 1MB of kernel memory Noticed by Jan Beulich. When the kernel was moved from 1MB to 2MB in 2.6.17 the kernel reservation code wasn't adjusted and it still reserved starting with 1MB. This means 1MB always were lost. This patch fixes this by reserving only starting with _text.
