There are other similar limits that could be explored and fixed, for example Qemu supports 16 CPUs on a plain Sun4m and there are patches allowing lots of disks. But I don't see what's the point fixing the issues if there are no real machines where removing these limits would matter. If I implemented in Qemu a completely new system (Sun4q?) with a Sparc-like CPU of my own design, would you accept any patches to support that in Linux? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
