Okay, here may need this,

/* 

 * Low RAM starts at least from 1M to make sure all standard regions 

 * of the PC memory map, like BIOS, VGA memory-mapped I/O and vgabios, 

 * have enough space.
 */
#define GUEST_LOW_MEM_START_DEFAULT 0x100000

On the consuming side, I should clarify that we always preserve 1M.

Right, I would add this at the beginning,

    if (e820_entries >= E820MAX) {
        LOG(ERROR, "Ooops! Too many entries in the memory map!\n");
        return -1;
    }
