I noticed in the loader/main.c that there seems to be some comment that it might be possible to set a build such that 3GB of memory can be allocated for a 32-bit process (through virtual memory mapping).
static void check_vmsplit( void *stack )
{
if (stack < (void *)0x80000000)
{
/* if the stack is below 0x80000000, assume we can safely try a munmap there */
if (munmap( (void *)0x80000000, 1 ) == -1 && errno == EINVAL)
fprintf( stderr,
"Warning: memory above 0x80000000 doesn't seem to be accessible.\n"
"Wine requires a 3G/1G user/kernel memory split to work properly.\n" );
}
}
If this is possible, are there some instructions on how to modify the source code and/or configuration after the build to support this? Lastly, are these modification possible when building on Macintosh?
Cheers,
Thomas
