[PATCH] ARM: Increase automatic malloc area space

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

 



This increases the malloc to half of the available memory in a
bank. This helps with some usecases requiring a lot of memory.
The other half is still available as scratch area and for
putting the kernel binary.
