When handling 64 GB on i386, pte_addr_t really only needs 33 bits to find the PTE. It sure doesn't need the full 64 bits it is using. How about cheating a bit? If the pte_addr_t only had the high 32 bits of the 36-bit pointer, it would point to a pair of the 8-byte PTEs in a 16-byte chunk of RAM. Then simply examine the PTEs to see which one is the correct one. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||
