Subject: [PATCH] [v4] ppc: force memory size to be a multiple of PAGE_SIZE
Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2008 10:19:26 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <654d47bb9cbd63f515bf.1227716366@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Ensure that total memory size is page-aligned, because otherwise
mark_bootmem() gets upset.
This error case was triggered by using 64 KiB pages in the kernel while
arch/powerpc/boot/4xx.c arbitrarily reduced the amount of memory by 4096 (to
work around a chip bug that affects the last 256 bytes of physical memory).
Signed-off-by: Hollis Blanchard <hollisb@us.ibm.com>

Changes from v3:
- No need to call lmb_enforce_memory_limit() with limit=lmb_phys_mem_size().
