Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] Fix MAX_ORDER config problem
Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2008 11:11:56 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080411111156.8861e269.sfr@canb.auug.org.au> (raw)
The allyesconfig (among others) build was giving this:
In file included from include/linux/gfp.h:4,
from include/linux/slab.h:14,
from include/linux/percpu.h:5,
from include2/asm/time.h:18,
from include2/asm/cputime.h:26,
from include/linux/sched.h:67,
from
arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c:17:
include/linux/mmzone.h:791:2: error: #error Allocator MAX_ORDER exceeds SECTION_SIZE
Kconfig options are order depenendent, so move the setting of
FORCE_MAX_ZONEORDER to after the setting of PPC_64K_PAGES. Also add an
explicit !PPC_64K_PAGES.
