Hi,
I am using 'ti-ezsdk_dm816x-evm_5_03_01_15'.
The default kernel config 'reserves' about 54MBytes of RAM in the Linux kernel early during boot. This 'reservation' leaves too little free RAM available for us to run our application.
I have traced the majority of this allocation to the following kernel config line:
CONFIG_TI81XX_VPSS_VRAM_SIZE=50
questions:
1). Why is such a large amount of RAM being 'reserved' in the Linux kernel?
2). What feature or features utilize this memory?
3). Can I safely reduce the size of this allocation?
4). How can I eliminate this allocation altogether?
Thanks
Scott
