On PowerVM, the first time we boot a Linux partition, we may only get
256MB of real memory area, even if the partition has more memory.
This isn't really enough. Fortunately, the Power Architecture Platform
Reference (PAPR) defines a method we can call to ask for more memory.
This is part of the b
I've posted a couple of RFC patches that attempted to claim some more
memory on ieee1275 platforms, which is necessary for the verifiers to
do their work. The RFCs were a bit unsatisfactory and also it turns
out they broke in some corner cases.
This, I believe, is a proper, upstream-worthy solutio
On powerpc-ieee1275, we are running out of memory trying to verify
anything. This is because:
- we have to load an entire file into memory to verify it. This is
extremely difficult to change with appended signatures.
- We only have 32MB of heap.
- Distro kernels are now often around 30MB.

HEAP_MAX_ADDR is confusing. Currently it is set to 32MB, except
on ieee1275 on x86, where it is 64MB.
There is a comment which purports to explain it:
/* If possible, we will avoid claiming heap above this address, because it
seems to cause relocation problems with OSes that link at 4 MiB */

Could you send the patch to the mailing list separately with
XFS now has an incompat feature flag to indicate that the filesystem needs
to be repaired. The Linux kernel refuses to mount a filesystem that has it
set and only the xfs_repair tool is able to clear that flag.
One option is to make the GRUB behaviour consistent with the Linux kernel,
and don't al
