We once used to exhaust the 32bit mmap space quite easily. I was thinking drm_vma_manager had the same limit due to its use of unsigned long, but it is counting in pages not bytes, so we have 44bits available of space, which will hopefully be enuogh for the last remaining 32bit system to grow old gracefully. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
