Hi all,
I am working on Final year Computer Engineering project on
paging in linux kernel . For this project I have to introduce a new
flagbit in the descriptor of the page . I'll be using one of the
flagbit that are not presently used. i am working on ia64 machine.
As given in include/linux/page-flags.h currently only flag bits 0-19
are used and bits 32-63 are used as field for node information.
so will it be feasible to use any of the unused flagbits from bit 20
to bit 32 for our purpose?
