% I've just had a look at porting it, and I note the following: % % 1. The patch to mm/vmalloc.c patches the function vremap which % appears not to exist in 2.2.9 ???
It was renamed to ioremap and moved to arch/<arch>/mm/ioremap.c .
But this part of the patch looks bad to me anyway; it stops anyone from mapping part of the hole to VM, but presumably anything that does this knows what it's doing (probably a driver mapping memory straight from an ISA card). Or am I missing something?
% 2. The patch to the configuration help file doesn't apply very % well, as it quotes configuration options that no longer exist. % % I'll see what I can do with it though...
Doesn't look worth saving, as Stephen Early's patch looks more flexible (not to mention supporting far more machines).
