Hi, not sure whether I'm actually supposed to report that one, feel free to ignore if this warning is supposed to be there. 2.6.27-rc6 as a Xen pvops domU on i386, both with CONFIG_SMP set and without (and patch from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11485 applied) report the following warning on startup. Linux version 2.6.27-rc6-sendmsg-debug (bschmidt@svr01.teleport-iabg.de) (gcc version 4.3.1 (Debian 4.3.1-9) ) #4 SMP Thu Sep 11 17:41:20 CEST 2008 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/ioremap.c:469 early_ioremap_init+0xfe/0x1a3() Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.27-rc6sendmsg-debug #4 [] warn_on_slowpath+0x3b/0x5e [] lookup_address+0xc0/0xe2 [] xen_mc_flush+0x10a/0x13f [] xen_set_pmd_hyper+0x6b/0x75 [] early_ioremap_init+0xfe/0x1a3 [] early_cpu_init+0x17e/0x186 [] setup_arch+0x2a/0x453 [] start_kernel+0x5d/0x252 [] xen_start_kernel+0x7e9/0x7f1 ======================= ---[ end trace 4eaa2a86a8e2da22 ]--- pmd c031ad50 != c031ad58 fix_to_virt(FIX_BTMAP_BEGIN): f55fe000 fix_to_virt(FIX_BTMAP_END): f56fd000 FIX_BTMAP_END: 256 FIX_BTMAP_BEGIN: 511 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: can't remember seeing that on 2.6.26 so it's probably a regression, but it doesn't seem to have any ill-effects.
