Thank you I'll see if I can find an online version to point others to, but

is seen.  I'll get to it shortly.  Thanks for sending this out.  Lets hope this
problem doesn't exist in even more chipsets.
Erratum 61? That doesn't require remapping to be disabled as
workaround. 62 and 69 do.

But you make a very good point regarding revisions: 62 also
applies to rev 0x12, and 69 applies to both 0x12 and 0x22.
Xen doesn't check for either of them right now. Malcolm - this
in turn means that keying off of device ID 0x342e indeed isn't
correct/complete. Are you going to be able to submit a Xen
side fix relatively soon, or shall I take care of this?
I didn't notice that errata 69 is not listed as fixed on rev 0x22 for the X58
chipset, sorry about that.

Have we had confirmation from Intel about this particular errata affecting
the X58? It seems strange that they both have the same revision ID but
different fixes for errata. If we have got confirmation then I'll create a patch straight away, I'll try our Intel contacts as well, it might speed things up a bit.
