Subject: [PATCH] small sym-2 fix
Date: Thu, 15 Nov 2001 15:36:54 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011115153654.E22552@krispykreme> (raw)
Hi,
I tested the sym-2 driver on ppc64 and found that hcb_p can be > 1 page
but __sym_malloc fails for allocations over 1 page. This means we
die in sym_attach.
With this patch the sym-2 works on ppc64. BTW so far it looks solid :)
Anton
