Subject: Increasing swiotlb default
Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2004 19:27:54 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040624212754.7dd1d68e.ak@suse.de> (raw)


Hallo,

I discovered that swiotlb defaults to using only 2MB of RAM by default. That's IMHO
far too small, especially since the consequences of overflow are so severe
(panic) x86-64 has the same problem because it shares this code.

This patch increases it to 64MB by default.
