[PATCH] x86_64: allocate sparsemem memmap above 4G

2007-08-15T08:02:24+00:00

On systems with huge amount of physical memory, VFS cache and memory memmap
may eat all available system memory under 4G, then the system may fail to
allocate swiotlb bounce buffer.

There was a fix for this issue in arch/x86_64/mm/numa.c, but that fix dose
not cover sparsemem model.

This patch add fix to sparsemem model by first try to allocate memmap above
4G.

It fixes various coding style issues, specially when spaces are useless.  For
example '*' go next to the function name.

[PATCH] bootmem: remove useless __init in header file

2006-09-26T15:48:45+00:00

__init in headers is pretty useless because the compiler doesn't check it, and
they get out of sync relatively frequently.  So if you see an __init in a
header file, it's quite unreliable and you need to check the definition
anyway.

[XFRM]: Dynamic xfrm_state hash table sizing.

2006-09-22T22:08:41+00:00

The grow algorithm is simple, we grow if:

1) we see a hash chain collision at insert, and
2) we haven't hit the hash size limit (currently 1*1024*1024 slots), and
3) the number of xfrm_state objects is > the current hash mask

All of this needs some tweaking.

Remove __initdata from "hashdist" so we can use it safely at run time.

[PATCH] FRV: Fix FRV arch compile errors

2006-07-10T20:24:21+00:00

Fix some FRV arch compile errors, including:

 (*) Marking nr_kernel_pages as __meminitdata so that references to it end up
     being properly calculated rather than being assumed to be in the small
     data section (and thus calculated wrt the GP register).  Not doing this
     causes the linker to emit errors as the offset is too big to fit into the
     load instruction.

 (*) Move pm_power_off into an unconditionally compiled .c file as it's now
     unconditionally accessed.

 (*) Declare frv_change_cmode() in a header file rather than in a .c file, and
     declare it asmlinkage.

[PATCH] wait_table and zonelist initializing for memory hotadd: change to meminit for build_zonelist

2006-06-23T14:42:46+00:00

Change definitions of some functions and data from __init to __meminit.

These functions and data can be used after bootup by this patch to be used for
hot-add codes.
