Subject: [PATCH v2] powerpc 8xx: Loading kernels over 8Mbytes without CONFIG_PIN_TLB
Date: Tue, 10 Dec 2013 12:29:45 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131210112945.E4E311A2BF3@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Today, the only way to load kernels whose size is greater than 8Mbytes is to
activate CONFIG_PIN_TLB. Otherwise, the physical memory initially mapped is
limited to 8Mbytes. This patch adds the capability to select the size of initial
memory between 8/16/24 Mbytes and this is regardless of whether CONFIG_PIN_TLB
is active or not. It allows to load "big" kernels (for instance when activating
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT) without having to activate CONFIG_PIN_TLB.
