Christoph Lameter a écrit :
Remove the builtin per cpu allocator from modules.c and use cpu_alloc instead.

+ percpu_size = sechdrs[pcpuindex].sh_size;
+
+ if (align > PAGE_SIZE) {
+ printk(KERN_WARNING "%s: per-cpu alignment %li > %li\n",
+ mod->name, align, PAGE_SIZE);
+ align = PAGE_SIZE;
+ }

Minor question : Wy do you have to keep this cap of alignment ?

I could not find such a limit in the allocator
