Subject: [PATCH core/percpu] percpu: fix too low alignment restriction on UP
Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2009 11:03:34 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49A5F876.2080607@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090225134343.GA30279@elte.hu>

UP __alloc_percpu() triggered WARN_ON_ONCE() if the requested
alignment is larger than that of unsigned long long, which is too
small for all the cacheline aligned allocations.  Bump it up to
SMP_CACHE_BYTES which kmalloc allocations generally guarantee.

Hello, Ingo.

I somehow completely forgot about testing UP.  Sorry about that. :-)
The following patch should do it.  Also available in the #tj-percpu
tree.

Thanks.
