Subject: 2.6.22-rc3 - VMI does not compile unless himem enabled
Date: Sun, 27 May 2007 05:47:46 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070527054746.632f06f8.mikeserv@bmts.com> (raw)
While building kernels for vmware guests, I noticed that the
paravirt VMI driver in 2.6.22-rc3 does not compile when highmem
support is disabled. This did not occur in 2.6.21

This does not occur if himem support is enabled.
