Access to these ranges is caught as an error, causing the BIOS to halt the system. Initial page tables mapped a large range of physical addresses that were not checked against the list of BIOS reserved addresses, and sometimes included reserved addresses in part of the mapped range. Including the reserved range in the map allowed processor speculative accesses to the reserved range, triggering a BIOS halt. Used early in booting, the page table level2_kernel_pgt addresses 1 GiB divided into 2 MiB pages, and it was set up to linearly map a full 1 GiB of physical addresses that included the physical address range of the kernel image, as chosen by KASLR. But this also included a large range of unused addresses on either side of the kernel image. And unlike the kernel image's physical address range, this extra mapped space was not checked against the BIOS tables of usable RAM addresses. So there were times when the addresses chosen by KASLR would result in processor accessible mappings of BIOS reserved physical addresses. The kernel code did not directly access any of this extra mapped space, but having it mapped allowed the processor to issue speculative accesses into reserved memory, causing system halts. This was encountered somewhat rarely on a normal system boot, and much more often when starting the crash kernel if "crashkernel=512M,high" was specified on the command line (this heavily restricts the physical address of the crash kernel, in our case usually within 1 GiB of reserved space). The solution is to invalidate the pages of this table outside the kernel image's space before the page table is activated. It fixes this problem on our hardware.
