Good.... > You'll definitely need to make this work dynamically somehow. Obviously. Any ideas how? I can probably calculate the size based on the number of online nodes when the per cpu areas are setup. But the setup is done before we even parse command line arguments. That would still mean a fixed size after bootup. In order to make it truly dynamic we would have to virtually map the area. vmap? But that reduces performance. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
