The patch titled Subject: mtrr, x86: define MTRR_TYPE_INVALID for mtrr_type_lookup() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mtrr-x86-define-mtrr_type_invalid-for-mtrr_type_lookup.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mtrr-x86-define-mtrr_type_invalid-for-mtrr_type_lookup.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mtrr-x86-define-mtrr_type_invalid-for-mtrr_type_lookup.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@xxxxxx> Subject: mtrr, x86: define MTRR_TYPE_INVALID for mtrr_type_lookup() mtrr_type_lookup() returns 0xFF when it cannot return a valid MTRR memory type since MTRRs are disabled. This patch defines MTRR_TYPE_INVALID to clarify the meaning of this value, and documents its usage. There is no functional change in this patch.
