Kirill A. Shutemov with the commit 96bacfe542 introduced
vm_ops->map_pages() for mapping easy accessible pages around
fault address in hope to reduce number of minor page faults.
Based on his workload runs, suggested FAULT_AROUND_ORDER
(knob to control the numbers of pages to map) is 4.
This patch
Performance data for different FAULT_AROUND_ORDER values from 4 socket
Power7 system (128 Threads and 128GB memory) is below. Fault around order (FAO)
value of 3 looks more advantageous.

Hmm, p2020 should be e500 core rather than e500mc. Additionally, you
should use gdb to debug it, and check which instruction is illegal.
Hi, Sandeep Gopalpet
I am a developer. Now I confronted an interesting phenomena. When I used
linux kernel 2.6.34.15 on freescale-p2020, I can not receive raw and
vlan packets on gfar-enet nic. But with e1000e nic, we can make vlan and
raw packets work well. I looked into the source code and f
Hi All,
We run into an issue when use e500mc toolchain g++ to compile c++ code for
p2020 platform, the code as below:
main.c
#include using namespace std;
int main(void) {cout << "asdfasdfasdfasdf";
return 0;}
compile it with command "powerpc-fls-linux-g++ main.c" and the output
This is a defconfig. You need to run "make mpc85xx_defconfig" to get the
.config file which is used to compile kernel.

What does you having one of these boards have to do with anythin
These are always breaking and I feel like I'm the only one fixing them
and I don't even have one of these boards so let's just remove them.
They are also broken right now in linux-next when compiling modules.

Patch 15/18 "powerpc/boot: add a global entry point for pseries"
introduced a pseries-head.S file to fix the endian order when
entering the boot wrapper. This patch is a fix for some platforms
which also generate the zImage.pseries boot wrapper.
