Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)
4ffe713b75
Currently we limit the max addressable memory to 128TB. This patch increase the limit to 2PB. We can have devices like nvdimm which adds memory above 512TB limit. We still don't support regular system ram above 512TB. One of the challenge with that is the percpu allocator, that allocates per node memory and use the max distance between them as the percpu offsets. This means with large gap in address space ( system ram above 1PB) we will run out of vmalloc space to map the percpu allocation. In order to support addressable memory above 512TB, kernel should be able to linear map this range. To do that with hash translation we now add 4 context to kernel linear map region. Our per context addressable range is 512TB. We still keep VMALLOC and VMEMMAP region to old size. SLB miss handlers is updated to validate these limit. We also limit this update to SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP and SPARSEMEM_EXTREME Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
