Subject: [2.6.15-rc2-mm1] Disabled flatmem on ppc32? (ARCH=powerpc)
Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2005 20:46:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44E57FC6-A500-42B7-86F9-F1F4E72734EC@mac.com> (raw)
There is a Kconfig problem for ppc32 in the latest -mm kernel. It
seems that somehow the Kconfig logic for selecting memory models
under ARCH=powerpc doesn't quite get it right for standard flatmem
ppc32 systems. When I look at the memory model selection, I only see
sparsemem, whereas on a normal -rc2 kernel, I can see both flatmem
and sparsemem. This somehow triggers a #error where the number of
reserved bits is less than the number necessary for the sparsemem
layout (because we're on a 32-bit arch without the address space for
sparsemem?).
Cheers,
Kyle Moffett
