Bug#740034: lshw can crash arm64 systems

2014-10-31 Thread Leif Lindholm
The problem is not actually restricted to arm64 - I would expect it will also effect all other non-x86 platforms. The attached patch disables the memory scanning for all architectures other than i386 and x86_64, and enables it for all UEFI architectures that provide an SMBIOS entry point address

Package: lshw Version: 02.16-2 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch lshw, when executed as root, will troll through /dev/mem looking for an smbios table. This causes an oops on some arm64 hardware. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
