Subject: [PATCH] Alpha increase PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2006 14:59:51 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <457E768F.6050606@gmail.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 0 bytes --]
[-- Attachment #2: 0002-Alpha-increase-PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM.txt --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1043 bytes --]
Module loading on Alpha was failing with error
"Could not allocate 8 bytes percpu data".
Looking at dmesg we have the below error
"No per-cpu room for modules."
Increase the PERCPU_ENOUGH_ROOM in a similar way as x86_64
