[RFC v4 03/58] memory: merge adjacent segments of a single memory region

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Simple implementations of memory routers, for example the Cirrus VGA memory banks
or the 440FX PAM registers can generate adjacent memory regions which are contiguous.
Detect these and merge them; this saves kvm memory slots and shortens lookup times.
