Subject: [PATCH 1/2] boot: increase stack size for kernel boot loader decompressor
Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2008 18:41:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080326014138.134849000@polaris-admin.engr.sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080326014137.934171000@polaris-admin.engr.sgi.com>

[-- Attachment #1: compressed-head_64 --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 949 bytes --]

Increase stack size for the kernel bootloader decompressor.  This is
needed to boot a kernel with NR_CPUS = 4096.  I tested with 8k stack
size but that wasn't sufficient.

Based on:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-x86.git
