https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=295463 --- Comment #10 from Vladlen Popolitov <vladlen@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Robert William Vesterman from comment #9) I cannot speak on behalf of FreeBSD, it my personal opinion, but for me it looks like noone expected, that Intel microcode patch has grown dramatically and exceed not only 8mb of default slop, but it is larger 16Mb now. It was 20-30Kb only 10-15 year ago. This slop area is used, when memory was not allocated by kernel yet. Destroyed memory belongs not to kernet, but to BIOS structures in RAM. I hope it is not security breach. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
