That's where I was going with the silly idea to use another allocator :) Really, it would be great if we could treat kmalloc() objects just like real pages. Everything wants to do I/O on pages but sometimes (like the networking) you have a kmalloc chunk which is technically just a part of a page. The fact that there is no easy way to make this work is frustrating :-) - 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/
