Yeah, the 16M DMA zone is redicilous and exists only for hardly seen ISA-style devices support. Haven't prepared the log well. >From 0b32b4c441f9e28bbda06eefbd14c25d00924830 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Baoquan He Date: Wed, 6 Jul 2022 15:26:15 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86, 64: let zone DMA cover low 4G if no ISA-style devices Content-type: text/plain It doesn't make sense to let the rare legacy ISA-style devies drag x86_64 to have a tiny zone DMA of 16M which cause many troubles.
