Hello, Can I allocate 100Mbytes of physical contiguous memory within my driver (for DMA ring-buffer purpose)? vmalloc can allocate such a big buffer but the pages are contiguous in the virtual space. Currently I tell kernel not to manage a chunk of memory upon bootup. Than I map a known address of the physical chunk into virtual space and use it within kernel and user land. I would like to allocate it within a driver instead. Regards, Konstantyn -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
