> AFAIK, if the same physical memory will be used then > there won't be different virtual address between Can we go via an example? Say I have a kernel module and am loading it after system start. Then in that module, I need some kinds of buffer and want to allocate memory using kmalloc. Then because I am a kernel space prog. kernel doesnt defer the allocation and tries to give me what I need. Say it finds a physical addr. range starting at 0x04000000. Then is the virtual addr. given to me 0xC4000000? I am wondering this... I hope I explain it clearly...
