Date: Fri, 1 Feb 2008 10:53:22 +0100 (CET) From: Andi Kleen <ak@...e.de> To: tglx@...utronix.de, mingo@...e.hu, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH] [9/12] GBPAGES: Switch pci-gart over to using cpa instead of clear_kernel_mapping pci-gart needs to unmap the IOMMU aperture to prevent cache corruptions. Switch this over to using cpa instead of clear_kernel_mapping() Drawback right now is that cpa will split everything down to 4k pages, and this costs 4K for each 2MB of aperture; 128KB for a typical 64MB aperture.
