Free list initialization



Hi all:

  Could anybody point me out to the part of the mm code where the  zone
free-lists are initialized to the remaining system memory  just
subsequent to setting up of the zone structures . ( so that  say when
the very first time _alloc_pages executes, the system can use (
__alloc_pages ()  ->   rmqueue()  free-list to allocate the required
memory block.

  I dont seem to be able to find any such code in free_area_init_core().

  Im using a 2.4.18 kernel.

Thanks in advance,
