[dm-devel] [PATCH v3 39/39] dm vdo: enable configuration and building of dm-vdo

[Mike Snitzer <snitzer@kernel.org>]

From: Matthew Sakai <msakai@redhat.com>

The dm-vdo target is not supported for 32-bit configurations. A vdo
target typically requires 1 to 1.5 GB of memory at any given time,
which is likely a large fraction of the addressable memory of a 32-bit
system. At the same time, the amount of addressable storage attached
to a 32-bit system may not be large enough for deduplication to
provide much benefit. Thus 32-bit platforms are deemed unlikely to be
good candidates for benefiting from a vdo target, and thus dm-vdo is
targeted only at 64-bit platforms.
