Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Fix assgining cma_area_count
Date: Sun, 09 Jan 2022 10:39:19 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <775ae3ba4f7034a78769559fa1a3542a@ercanersoy.net> (raw)


I have patched "Contiguous Memory Allocator" of Linux kernel.

This fix of patch is for cma_init_reserved_mem function in
mm/cma.c source file as creating area without specific name.

Without fix may be a problem a lot of cma as next cma2147483647 naming.
Without fix may be a problem huge memory systems.

I think after "cma2147483647" naming is "cma-2147483648".

Thanks for interesting,
Ercan
