[K42-discussion] Large page support on K42

Hi,

A while ago, I had been keeping track on the large page support issues
on the K42. Now, I have 2 questions in this area.

1. Does K42 still use the `reserve-on-boot' policy to support large
pages? This policy was described in another message on this discussion
group.

2. Previously, in around 2004, the large page development work was
done on PPC970FX, which supports only 2 page sizes. Has any
modification been made on K42 for architectures supporting more than 1
large page sizes? For example, POWER5+ support 4 page sizes.

Thank you very much!

Regards,
Yipkei
