As stands 12.x has picked up Justin's change . . . stable/12 picked up the -r334498 from head: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/12/sys/powerpc/include/vmparam.h?view=log shows: Revision 339434 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Modified Fri Oct 19 00:09:24 2018 UTC (4 weeks, 1 day ago) by gjb File length: 7514 byte(s) Diff to previous 334498 Copy head@r339432 to stable/12 as part of the 12.0-RELEASE cycle. Additional post-branch commits will follow. Approved by: re (implicit) Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation Revision 334498 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Modified Fri Jun 1 21:37:20 2018 UTC (5 months, 2 weeks ago) by jhibbits Original Path: head/sys/powerpc/include/vmparam.h File length: 7514 byte(s) Diff to previous 331900 Increase powerpc64 KVA from ~7.25GB to 32GB This will let us use much more KVA for ZFS ARC where needed. This may be incresed in the future if memory requirements increase. Discussed with: nwhitehorn In turn the releng sequence later picked up the above as well: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/releng/12.0/sys/powerpc/include/vmparam.h?view=log shows: Revision 340470 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Modified Fri Nov 16 00:00:59 2018 UTC (2 days ago) by gjb File length: 7514 byte(s) Diff to previous 339434 - Copy stable/12@r340462 to releng/12.0 as part of the 12.0-RELEASE cycle. - Prune svn:mergeinfo from the new branch. - Update from BETA4 to RC1.
