I think there's a bit of background missing here for random folks on linux-mm to make sense of these patches. What is BOOK3S and what does it mean for these patches? Why is its 64K page size implementation different than all the others? Is there a 4K page size BOOK3S? _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
