Subject: [Linux-ia64] Status of 64K pagesize support
Date: Fri, 16 Mar 2001 21:07:53 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-105590693005288@msgid-missing> (raw)

What is the status of support for 64K pagesizes in IA64. Is anyone
actively working this??

I built a 2.4.2 kernel with 64K pages & immediately hit 2
problems:

	- gcc doesnt support 64K alignment (perhaps I am using
	  an old gcc??)

	- drivers/scsi/scsi_dma.c has a bitmap 
	  that overflows with 64K pages.


I dont mind working on these issues but first wanted to check if
anyone else is working on them.

What other issues are people aware of that are lurking.....
