How to set pages mapped to a vma to all zero
Hi, Suppose I have a vma belonging to a user process and in its address range a lot of pages are mapped. What should I do if I want to set the data of all the page frames to zero, without unmapping any of them or mapping any new pages? Can zap_page_range / zap_vma_ptes do that? It seems zap functions would unmap pages. Thanks, Cheng Quan ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies

Hi Land This is not the problem, actually I've sent the task through mutt, in the exactly way he asked. The problem is really on the scripts + little side.

[SOLVED] Re: 2.6.10 no boot
Dear friends, the problem is that GRUB2 does not like version 2.6.10. I created a liveCd with isolinux + kernel 2.6.10 and the system boots up fine with it. So the most modern toolchain able to build 2.6.10 correctly that I tested is: gcc 3.4, binutils 2.22. this patch (it fix errors raised up by binutils 2.22 (and maybe lesser ones)) - www.kernel.org/pub/linux/devel/binutils/linux-2.6-seg-5.patch, ...and avoid grub2!!
