[PATCH v2 4/9] x86: Support allocate memory from bottom upwards in setup_log_buf().

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

 



During early boot, if the bottom up mode is set, just
try allocating bottom up from the end of kernel image,
and if that fails, do normal top down allocation.

So in function setup_log_buf(), we add the above logic.
