Hi Daniel
I didn't catch the reason why "It is not dependent on
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID option but
on arm(64) implementation of pfn_valid() function"? Can you explain more
about it? Thanks
What's your thought if I changed the codes as followed?
in include/linux/memblock.h
#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_PFN_VALID
extern unsigned long memblock_next_valid_pfn(unsigned long pfn);
#else
#define memblock_next_valid_pfn(pfn) (pfn + 1)
#endif
Cheers,
Jia
