For my setup the problem is first seen after: commit bdee237c0343 " x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large memory x86-64 systems" which appeared in v3.19 and forced a 2GB memory block size. But it could happen on older systems depending on the block size picked based on the alignment of max_pfn. Looking further back (to v3.15) ... we used a fixed MIN_MEMORY_BLOCK_SIZE for all systems prior to commit 982792c782ef "x86, mm: probe memory block size for generic x86 64bit" So maybe: Cc: [email protected] #v3.15 -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
