Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Don't use a 16G page if beyond mem= limits
Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2008 20:27:36 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48FE8188.8030706@us.ibm.com> (raw)
If mem= is used on the boot command line to limit memory then the memory block where a 16G page resides may not be available.
Thanks to Michael Ellerman for finding the problem.
