Subject: [PATCH 4/4] nommu - backward compatibility patch for mm/nommu.c
Date: Sat, 07 May 2005 17:12:40 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0IG400GWS1JUNY@mmp2.samsung.com> (raw)

nommu patch against 2.6.12-rc3-mm3, for mm/nommu.c : 
- need to fix the vmalloc definition.
- most malloc functions in nommu does not provide the 'len'. should consider
"zero" len value.
 If it does return with error when the 'len' is zero, the whole exist
applications are unable to run, because of the std-c libraries for uClinux.
