Hi, the RSS thing is.. .funky. I'm saying that because we have not been able to define what RSS means, so before we expand how RSS is used that needs solving first. This is relevant for the pagetable sharing patches: if RSS can exclude shared, they're relatively easy. If RSS has to include shared always, we have currently a problem because hugepages aren't part of RSS right now. I would really really really like to see this unclarity sorted out on the concept level before going through massive changes in the code based on something so fundamentally unclear. -- if you want to mail me at work (you don't), use arjan (at) linux.intel.com Test the interaction between Linux and your BIOS via http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
