Hello,

When I want to create a device mapper table in user-mode-linux, I get 

BUG: failure at mm/bounce.c:85/init_emergency_isa_pool()!
(full stack trace below)

I think this behaviour was introduced by:
[PATCH] uml: get rid of ZONE_DMA use

I got it to work by reversing the patch.

Greetings,

Rik.

Can you detail the used UML version? Thanks.

It happens, for example, with stock 2.6.19+"page.h compilation fix by Jeff".

The failing init_emergency_isa_pool is called from block/ll_rw_blk.c
because it finds that the system has DMA. With the introduction of 'get
rid of ZONE_DMA use' init_emergency_isa_pool started giving errors.
The proper fix probably consists of convincing block/ll_rw_blk.c that it
doesn't need DMA (<16MB) memory.

Greetings,

Rik.
