The nice thing is if this was solved in the IOMMU code then we could drop (or not initialize) GFP_DMA on systems with that hardware. I guess GFP_DMA32 would still need to stay for the graphics devices though. Not sure how much difference it would make though, but at least Christoph Lameter seems to think it would. -Andi - 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/
