Assuming you have 1 single page size of physical memory. Now when you mmap a huge size would all the different virtual addresses be mapping onto the same physical page frame? _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
