I'm not sure how to do better than that without starting to hardcode variously nasty assumptions. With CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK=y I think the 64-bit vdso is two pages anyway. With CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK=n, it's one page even with my code. (At some point I plan on tackling the paravirt clock code. It's much more complicated and much slower than it needs to be.) --Andy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
