Subject: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc: mm: change pgtable index size for 64K page
Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2013 10:17:55 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1385000275-5988-2-git-send-email-pingfank@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1385000275-5988-1-git-send-email-pingfank@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
For 64K page, we waste half of the pte_t page. With this patch, after
changing PGD_INDEX_SIZE from 12 to 11, PTE_INDEX_SIZE from 8 to 9,
we can improve the usage of pte_t page and shrink the continuous phys
size for pgd_t.
