Thanks, I filed PR port-amd64/NNNNN: `x86 efiboot: bootinfo pointers truncated when mapped >4GB' <https://gnats.NetBSD.org/NNNNN> to track this. I wrote a note about the issue jakllsch@ raised with non-efi boot in the `Fix' section before I saw what you said about uintptr_t being 32-bit for non-EFI boot. Feel free to follow up on the PR -- just send mail with subject `Re: port-amd64/NNNNN: x86 efiboot: bootinfo pointers truncated when mapped >4GB' to gnats-b...@netbsd.org cc netbsd-bugs@NetBSD>org -- with clarification, and yes, we should have a CTASSERT in the non-EFIBOOT case.
