It needs some more fixes. Can you point Jake at one for an older kernel? For developing a test suite for hot remove, we can set the machine to that old kernel in the meantime. > > In the case that I am using acpi for the entry point, I need to be able > > to tell how many memory sections have been set up in the dsdt file, is > > there a way to do this(other than capturing, decompiling and then > > parsing the /proc/acpi/dsdt file)? > > I post patches to show memory section <-> DSDT relationship.
