Subject: [PATCH 1/3] smp: reduce stack requirements for smp_call_function_mask
Date: Fri, 05 Sep 2008 14:40:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080905214020.115286000@polaris-admin.engr.sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20080905214019.821172000@polaris-admin.engr.sgi.com

[-- Attachment #1: smp_call_function_mask --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1817 bytes --]

  * Cleanup cpumask_t usages in smp_call_function_mask to remove stack
    overflow problem when NR_CPUS=4096.  This removes over 1000 bytes
    from the stack with NR_CPUS=4096.

Based on 2.6.27-rc5-git6.

Applies to linux-2.6.tip/master (with FUZZ).
