This is defined in kernel code. there was a a way to do it from the
command line too.
*vmalloc=<size>* You may try this command line option at
boot time.

Hello,
I
am using a RedHat Enterprise WS v4 distribution.
I
am looking to increase the value that is displayed by VmallocTotal
using `cat /proc/meminfo`. The value I currently have is
"VmallocTotal: 106488 kB". This is unacceptable for the current
situation.
On
another system using a Fedora Core 3 distribution, the VmallocTotal
value is "VmallocTotal: 3612664 kB". This is what I want.
Both
systems have 1GB RAM installed. The hardware is identical. The
distributions are the difference.
I
have attempted to follow the definition of VMALLOC_START to ascertain
if I could adjust it to get the VmallocTotal to the value I want. I
have been unsuccessful down this path.
I
am looking for a system utility or something to configure to allow the
RHEL 4 system to increase its vmalloc space. I would prefer not to have
to recompile the kernel for this to work.
Thank
you for your help.
Bill
