Re: [Xen-devel] bad memory and xen

[Keir Fraser <Keir.Fraser@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If it's in the lowest 64MB of memory then it would be tricky, as Xen
has a fairly rigid memory map in that space during boot. Above 64MB we
could add support for resreving bad memory pages so they can't be
allocated for use.
