Hi - I just tested out test3-pre7. It feels pretty nice, except that it...
keeps 8Mb free?
I did add a small patch from Manfred Spraul:
--- 2.4/mm/slab.c Sun Jul 9 10:24:24 2000 +++ build-2.4/mm/slab.c Sun Jul 9 16:18:41 2000 @@ -355,7 +355,6 @@ spinlock: SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED, colour_off: L1_CACHE_BYTES, name: "kmem_cache", - next: LIST_HEAD_INIT(cache_cache.next) }; /* Guard access to the cache-chain. */ @@ -412,7 +411,7 @@ size_t left_over; init_MUTEX(&cache_chain_sem); - list_add(&cache_cache.next,&cache_chain); + INIT_LIST_HEAD(&cache_chain); kmem_cache_estimate(0, cache_cache.objsize, 0, &left_over, &cache_cache.num); But I'm not sure how this would have an effect... In test3-pre6 I got some OOPSES, from BUG() in dcache.h. But I don't THINK I had this problem...
