hello after getting an irc query and bug report on our currently set number of cpu for the upcoming lenny release: /boot/config-2.6.26-1-amd64:CONFIG_NR_CPUS=32
-> http://bugs.debian.org/491309 we came to this issue: 10:13 <waldi> 1345623 3148364 417112 4911099 4aeffb x86_64-255/vmlinux 10:13 <waldi> 1339887 380556 273880 1994323 1e6e53 x86_64-32/vmlinux 10:13 <waldi> only change is the number of cpus *gna* 10:16 <waldi> struct irq_cfg irq_cfg[NR_IRQS] __read_mostly = { 10:18 <waldi> yeah, 2.5MiB just for the interrups 10:19 <waldi> #define NR_IRQS (256 + (32 * NR_CPUS)) 10:29 <waldi> and because some parts have static initializers, it can't be moved into the bss section the debian installer cares about the image size. thanks for your input, as i see that you do the 4k cpu work on 2.6.27. -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
