[SOLVED] how to increase vmalloc size ?

[vidya]

Hi,

I am using linux-2.6.24.2 source and i have included my atm driver as module in it.when i load the kernel image and insmod my module,i am getting this message and crashed .

"
allocation failed: out of vmalloc space - use vmalloc=<size> to increase size. "


I tried by increasing the vmalloc size in kernel options, but that dint help well.


I have attached the memory information before and after loading the module.

What distribution and what platform/architecture are you using? Is this for an x86 processor, or other?
