Can anyone tell me what is the default base page size supported by ia64 processor on Linux?
Default page size for Itanium is 16K
And can we change the base page size to some large page size like 16kb,64kb....? and how to do that?
You need to rebuild the kernel to change the default pagesize. Run "make menuconfig" and choose the "Processor type and features" menu entry, 3rd entry down on that menu is "Kernel page size". You can choose 4k, 8k, 16k or 64k. -Tony -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
