It would also be nice to convert ARM to using sparsemem rather than discontigmem, but despite having a patch adding the supporting common infrastructure for the last year and a half or so, no one in the ARM community is interested in it. Since I've no machines which use the present discontig support and have more than a single bank of memory, I've no way to test and progress sparsemem on ARM - and since no one's interested I'm probably going to drop the ARM sparsemem git branch soon. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
