[patch] Cleanup bootmem allocator and fix alloc_bootmem_low

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Andrew,
The following patch removes alloc_bootmem_*limit apis and fixes
alloc_bootmem_low and friends to allocate below the 4G limit.

We'd agreed to do kill the *limit apis post 2.6.14.  
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112976967105993&w=2

Tested on x86_64 arches. 

Thanks,
Kiran

Patch cleans up the alloc_bootmem fix for swiotlb.  
Patch removes alloc_bootmem_*_limit api and fixes 
alloc_boot_*low api to do the right thing -- allocate from low32 memory.

We did not do this earlier to minimise impact at the 2.6.14 final 
release moment.
