[PATCH] powerpc: rheap-managed bootmem allocator

Timur Tabi timur at freescale.com
Thu Sep 20 05:15:04 EST 2007


Add the ability to allocate a block of memory via alloc_bootmem() and manage
that memory with a remote heap (rheap).

This patch will conflict with Sylvain's "powerpc: Changes the config mechanism
for rheap" patch, but that patch hasn't been accepted yet, so I'm posting this
for review and comment.
