New Revision: 246204
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/246204

Log:
  Add VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE parameter set to 2 (50%) for all ARM platforms.
  
  VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE specifies which fraction of the available physical
  memory, after deduction of the kernel itself and other early statically
  allocated memory, can be used for the kmem_map.  The kmem_map provides
  for all UMA/malloc allocations in KVM space.
  
  Previously ARM was using a fixed kmem_map size of (12*1024*1024) = 12MB
  without regard to effectively available memory.  This is too small for
  recent ARM SoC with more than 128MB of RAM.
  
  For reference a description of others related kmem_map parameters:
  
   VM_KMEM_SIZE		default start size of kmem_map if SCALE is
  			not defined
   VM_KMEM_SIZE_MIN	hard floor on the kmem_map size
   VM_KMEM_SIZE_MAX	hard ceiling on the kmem_map size
   VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE	fraction of the available real memory to
  			be used for the kmem_map, limited by the
  			MIN and MAX parameters.
