Hello,
In my quest to get the kernel to allocate a contiguous 4098kB chunk of
memory (for a large framebuffer), I found out that the MAX_ORDER macro
was the reason memory allocation failed (4098kB -> 8192kB = order 11).
So I raised MAX_ORDER to 12 and allocation succeeds.
My question now is, what is the significance of the value 11 assigned to
MAX_ORDER? Is it safe to change it?
Thanks,
Manuel Lauss
