vmemmap is forcefully set to start at MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS at most. That could be needed in the past to limit ident_map_size to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. However since commit 75eba6ec0de1 ("s390: unify identity mapping limits handling") ident_map_size is limited in setup_ident_map_size() function, which is called earlier. Another reason to limit vmemmap start to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is because it was returned by arch_get_mappable_range() as the maximum mappable physical address. Since commit f641679dfe55 ("s390/mm: rework arch_get_mappable_range() callback") that is not required anymore. As result, there is no neccessity to limit vmemmap starting address with MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. Reviewed-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@linux.ibm.com>
Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
