What is the (default) kernel address space size in 64bit machines?
I am considering by saying 64-bit you mean x86_64
Does it matter???
I thought Linux had an abstraction layer so on all platforms you get the
same partitioning.
Is it different on IA64?
I found previous conversations regarding the differences between IA64 and
x86_64, but I don't see why the memory management should be different.
See Documentation/x86_64/mm.txt OR
http://sosdg.org/~coywolf/lxr/source/Documentation/x86_64/mm.txt
Thanks. That closes a gap, as I read that user address space is "only"
47bit.
Want to add one thing more: Please for asking some new question
__must__ create a new mail just __not__ reply to any of the previous
mail/thread by just changing the subject
Sorry. Wasn't aware of the 'references' tag.
