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

 



From: Dave Kleikamp <dave.kleikamp@xxxxxxxxxx>

This change allows ATU (new IOMMU) in SPARC systems to request
large (32M) contiguous memory during boot for creating IOTSB backing
store.

+	  The kernel memory allocator divides physically contiguous memory
+	  blocks into "zones", where each zone is a power of two number of
+	  pages.  This option selects the largest power of two that the kernel
+	  keeps in the memory allocator.  If you need to allocate very large
+	  blocks of physically contiguous memory, then you may need to
+	  increase this value.
+
+	  This config option is actually maximum order plus one. For example,
+	  a value of 13 means that the largest free memory block is 2^12 pages.
