An earlier proposal that Christoph pushed would have used the BTE on sn2 for this. Are you thinking of using the BTE on sn0/sn1 mips?I wasn't being that specific. There's spare DMA engines on a lot of PPC/ARM/FRV/SH/MIPS and other machines, to name just the ones sitting around my desk.
If you look at the patch you will find a function call to register a hardware driver for zeroing. I did not include the driver in this patch because there was no change. Look at my other posts regarding prezeroing. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
