The patch titled
shmem: respect MAX_LFS_FILESIZE
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
shmem-respect-max_lfs_filesize.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: shmem: respect MAX_LFS_FILESIZE
From: Hugh Dickins <hugh@xxxxxxxxxxx>
SHMEM_MAX_BYTES was derived from the maximum size of its triple-indirect
swap vector, forgetting to take the MAX_LFS_FILESIZE limit into account.
Never mind 256kB pages, even 8kB pages on 32-bit kernels allowed files to
grow slightly bigger than that supposed maximum.
Fix this by using the min of both (at build time not run time). And it
happens that this calculation is good as far as 8MB pages on 32-bit or
16MB pages on 64-bit: though SHMSWP_MAX_INDEX gets truncated before that,
it's truncated to such large numbers that we don't need to care.
[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: it needs pagemap.h]
[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: fix sparc64 min() warnings]
