Subject: Is there no vmalloc() for PPC kernel?
Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2001 02:37:08 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011025093708.81325.qmail@web20107.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)
I need to allocate more than page worth of memory in
kernel. Some documentation that I looked at indicated
I should be using vmalloc() , so I tried using it for
PPC kernel and it couldn't find this symbol. Looked
through the code ( 2.4.4 ) and I didn't see it.
What is the best way to allocate "fairly" large memory
pool for use within the kernel by the driver?
John
