From fd35cff8d285c6ae30c66a70321ebbcd2a4615ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Manish Ahuja Date: Sat, 22 Mar 2008 10:47:04 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] pseries: phyp dump: Tracking memory range freed This tracks the size freed. For now it does a simple rudimentary calculation of the ranges freed. The idea is to keep it simple at the external shell script level and send in large chunks for now.
