RE: [Xen-devel] [bug] 'VT-d 1G super page' feature is blocked



Tim,

This patch at least fixed the dom0 boot issue on my jaketown system when 
sharept is used.  I'm still having some issue in the guest which might not be 
sharept related.  I need to verify it further tomorrow as I need to leave early 
today.

When you get a chance, can you also make a similar patch for xen-4.1-testing?  
Jan need it for backporting to SLES11.

Ah, yes it should; thanks for spotting that.  For AMD _external() is sufficient 
but not for VtD.  Updated version attached. 

Cheers,

Tim
