From 52db907b9df439c6dbee0856e8bf48be62f81027 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yinghai Lu Date: Wed, 11 May 2011 15:13:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mm: use alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() on really needed path commit 8f389a99b652aab5b42297280bd94d95933ad12f upstream. Stefan found nobootmem does not work on his system that has only 8M of RAM. This causes an early panic: BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-88: 0000000000000000 - 000000000009f000 (usable) BIOS-88: 0000000000100000 - 0000000000840000 (usable) bootconsole [earlyser0] enabled Notice: NX (Execute Disable) protection missing in CPU or disabled in BIOS!

Use alloc_bootmem_node_nopanic() in this case. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: less mess] Signed-off-by: Yinghai LU Reported-by: Stefan Hellermann Tested-by: Stefan Hellermann Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: "H.
