Sorry, I can't find any register (-> variable) that could be clobbered by
get_mmap_entry or e820:
ENTRY(get_mmap_entry)
push %ebp
push %ebx
push %edi
push %esi
[...]
/* set return value to continuation */
movl %ebx, %eax
pop %esi
pop %edi
pop %ebx
pop %ebp
ret
So how can a change that makes a local variable volatile possibly help, unless
_really_ hideous things are going on? Am I missing something?
What is the BIOS in question, anyway? Have you reported the bug to the
manufacturer?
