Has anyone worked on adding 64k page support to the ARM v7 architecture, in particular the ARM Cortex A9? I know that there is HugeTLB support available but I'm wondering if anyone has tried making the native page size 64k rather than 4k. In other words, make PAGE_SHIFT 16 instead of 12 and all of the corresponding changes to the way page tables are handled. Has this been attempted already? Can someone point me to a patch?
Thanks! David Betz
