"Too many memory regions, truncating" is of concern because memory will be
effectively lost. Is this on x86_64 as well? If so, I need to submit a
patch that sets CONFIG_MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS to 128 on x86_64 which is the
same value of E820MAX. This is similar to what PPC64 does for LMB regions
(see MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS in arch/powerpc/Kconfig for example). If it's not
x86_64, what arch does it occur on?
Yes, it's x86_64. It kind of went away though. I seem to have been
finding various .config combinations which cause x86_64 to die horridly -
that was one.
