Subject: Patch for swap usage of high memory
Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2001 13:15:07 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <12200000.995480107@baldur> (raw)
This patch fixes the problem where pages allocated for swap space reads
will not be allocated from high memory.
Rik, could you please forward this to the kernel mailing list? I am
temporarily unable to reach it directly due to ECN problems.
Thanks,
Dave McCracken
