Subject: [08/11] crypto: Use virtualizable compounds for temporary order 2 allocation
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:42:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080430044320.758185153@sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20080430044251.266380837@sgi.com
[-- Attachment #1: vcp_crypto_fallback --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1288 bytes --]
The crypto subsystem needs an order 2 allocation. This is a temporary buffer
for xoring data so we can safely allow the use of a virtualizable compound.
