[Xen-devel] [RFC PATCH V2 05/14] Bump EVTCHNS_PER_BUCKET to 512

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx>]

For 64 bit build and 3-level event channel and the original value of
EVTCHNS_PER_BUCKET (128), the space needed to accommodate d->evtchn
would be 4 pages (PAGE_SIZE = 4096). Given that not every domain needs
3-level event channel, this leads to waste of memory. Also we've
restricted d->evtchn to one page, if we move to 3-level event channel,
Xen cannot build.

Having EVTCHN_PER_BUCKETS to be 512 can occupy exact one page.
