Have you tested this? I think it increases the amount of memory needed for the buddy allocator bitmaps by a factor of 8, and right now those bitmaps are kmalloc()ed. So I'd be aftraid that it would make it impossible to load the module.
Anyway this is definitely 2.6.21 material given that we're already at 2.6.20-rc4, and this change is has a decent chance of introducing regressions. - R. _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list openib-general@openib.org http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
