Subject: NFS mount fails with CONFIG_HIGHMEM on MIPS 24Kc system on 2.6.24
Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2008 12:17:45 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47B5F369.7060600@cisco.com> (raw)

We have a 2.6.24final port to a MIPS 24Kc-based system which works 
normally without CONFIG_HIGHMEM enabled. When we enable HIGHMEM, the 
system boots normally using a CRAMFS root filesystem. If we use an NFS 
root filesystem, however, it appears to go through a normal boot, 
including the freeing of init memory, but then just sits indefinitely in 
r4k_wait().

I can see that using HIGHMEM enables use of kmap_atomic in networking 
code. Are there issues with networking or NFS with HIGHMEM enabled?
