[RFC 5/8] x86_64 without ZONE_DMA

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

 



x86_64: ZONE_DMA/ZONE_DMA32 optional

Allow the use to specify CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 and CONFIG_ZONE_DMA (via
CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA).

Not that this is incomplete. What really needs to occur is that
devices using ISA DMA need to depend on ZONE_DMA.

I am also not sure if this works for all configuration. Works fine
on my desktop x86_64 system with a single zone.
