Subject: allocating very big contiguous memory
Date: Thu, 19 Aug 2010 09:42:41 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <324015.78378.qm@web120304.mail.ne1.yahoo.com> (raw)
I need to allocate 30M of contiguous memory in my driver.
I think kmalloc, get_free_pages and friends can allocate 4M at maximum.
Is there any other API that can allocate more than this?
