Subject: [PATCH 1 of 3] add phys_addr_t for holding physical addresses
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2008 13:02:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <73196c9129c7298f2428.1219176170@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <patchbomb.1219176169@localhost>
Add a kernel-wide "phys_addr_t" which is guaranteed to be able to hold
any physical address. By default it equals the word size of the
architecture, but a 32-bit architecture can set ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT
if it needs a 64-bit phys_addr_t.
