From a62eaf151d9cb478d127cfbc2e93c498869785b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2006 23:41:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: Add boot option to disable randomized mappings and cleanup AMD SimNow!'s JIT doesn't like them at all in the guest. For distribution installation it's easiest if it's a boot time option. Also I moved the variable to a more appropiate place and make it independent from sysctl And marked __read_mostly which it is.
