And it seems to me that they leave things like this to the user, and the defconfig only really contains things that really are required by the architecture or are architecture specific. So maybe instead of making arbitrary choices for these values which one set of users want and another set of users do not (I prefer SLAB, it is faster, and I know what the downsides wrt. NUMA balancing compared to SLAB are and am willing to accept that), we should do what other platforms do and not specify things like this at all. -- 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
