Description Frederik Himpe 2012-01-20 10:27:05 CET
In kernel 3.1.6-1, transparent hugepages were set to madvise instead of always because of USB slowdowns reported on the mandriva cooker mailing list. This problem has been fixed upstream:
https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=a77ebd333cd810d7b680d544be88c875131c2bd3

With these patches, transparent hugepages can again be set to always by default, without slowing down I/O to slow USB devices.

Trying to ping 41 bug reports in one move, because nothing has happened with them for more than 3 months, they still have the status NEW or REOPENED, there is no "OK" on the Whiteboard and severity and priority are "normal" or higher.

Is this one still valid for Mageia 2 rc?

If it is and you're the assignee, please set status to ASSIGNED if you think this bug was assigned correctly. If for work flow reasons you can't do that, then please put OK on the whiteboard instead.
If it wasn't assigned correctly, please assign back to Bug Squad and explain.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja

Close this as old because there is no respons in half a year.
When someone wants to reopen it please provide details as the version of
