hey guys, I have a question about PG_highmem flag it is present in page-flag.h up till 2.6.11.3 but in 2.6.18 on wards it is not there. Please comment on this issue
I think PG_highmem flag is removed just because its not needed (CMIIW), as you can get the pfn from page by using macro " page_to_pfn " and then from pfn you can easily get whether its of highmemory or not. You can also use macro " PageHighMem " (http://lxr.linux.no/source/include/linux/page-flags.h?v=2.6.18#L159) for verifying that whether the page is of highmem or lowmem region/zone I hope this helps ! -- Fawad Lateef -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
