Hi All,
aligned virtual --- > aligned phy and unaligned virtual --- > unaligned phy ??
2: Since the cpu access the memory in word size, for a large buffer, (say size N bytes where N > wordsize) isn't it sufficient for buffer to be properly aligned if its address % WORD_SIZE == 0? rather than address % N == 0 check?? since cpu, anyways will not access more than word size at a time so any address which is divisible by wordsize is by default properly aligned?_______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
