Hello fellow Kernel newbies,
One of the popular text books says that the processes runnning on Linux on 32 bit architectures has the impression that it has 4GB of memory for itself. My question is:
a) if every process has 4GB of Linear address space for itself, then how does Linux differentiate between processes?. In the sense how does linux differentiate between accesses to same addresses (ex address 500) in different processes.
May be I have understood it wrong. Could anyone please help me understand this concept?
Thanks for your help in advance.
