v2:
- Although this patchset looks very different with v1, the end result,
that is, mm/cma.c is same with v1's one. So I carry Ack to patch 6-7.
This patchset is based on linux-next 20140610.
Thanks for taking care of this. I will test it with my setup and if
everything goes well, I will take it to my -next tree. If any branch
is required for anyone to continue his works on top of those patches,
let me know, I will also prepare it.
Hello,
I'm glad to hear that. :)
But, there is one concern. As you already know, I am preparing further
patches (Aggressively allocate the pages on CMA reserved memory). It
may be highly related to MM branch and also slightly depends on this CMA
changes. In this case, what is the best strategy to merge this
patchset? IMHO, Anrew's tree is more appropriate branch. If there is
no issue in this case, I am willing to develope further patches based
on your tree.
That's probably easier. Marek, I'll merge these into -mm (and hence
-next and git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mhocko/mm.git)
and shall hold them pending you review/ack/test/etc, OK?
Ok. I've tested them and they work fine. I'm sorry that you had to wait for
me for a few days. You can now add:
Acked-and-tested-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>
I've also rebased my pending patches onto this set (I will send them soon).
The question is now if you want to keep the discussed patches in your
-mm tree,
or should I take them to my -next branch. If you like to keep them, I assume
you will also take the patches which depends on the discussed changes.
Best regards
