1) uml kernel bootmem managed through bootmem_data->node_bootmem_map, not struct page array, so it is unnecessary.
2) the struct page array allocate has been pointer by a *loacl* pointer struct page *map in init_maps function. The array can't be access after the init_maps exit. As a result, there is about 1% of total memory leak. --- arch/um/kernel/um_arch.c | 5 ----- 1 file changed, 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/um/kernel/um_arch.c b/arch/um/kernel/um_arch.c index 016adf0..9f3c6d1 100644 --- a/arch/um/kernel/um_arch.c +++ b/arch/um/kernel/um_arch.c @@ -309,11 +309,6 @@ int __init linux_main(int argc, char **argv) */ diff = UML_ROUND_UP(brk_start) - UML_ROUND_UP(&_end); - if (diff > 1024 * 1024) { - printf("Adding %ld bytes to physical memory to account for " - "exec-shield gap\n", diff); - physmem_size += UML_ROUND_UP(brk_start) - UML_ROUND_UP(&_end); - } uml_physmem = (unsigned long) &__binary_start & PAGE_MASK; -- 1.8.3.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
