[PATCH 11/30] x86, kaiser: make sure static PGDs are 8k in size

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

 



From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We have a few PGDs that come out of the kernel binary instead of being
allocated dynamically.  Before this patch, they are all 8k-aligned,
but we also need them to be 8k in *size*e

The original KAISER patch did not do this.  It probably just lucked out
that it did not trample over data after the last PGD.
