Hi , While browsing through the code i came across macros like SHIFT , MASK , SIZE which are used in conversion from linear address to physical address but this is the job of the processor (address translation) then why do we have these macros can anyone please explain. -- Thanks and Regards Vivek Kutal http://vivekkutal.blogspot.com "Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
