Hi, How would the kernel get access to high memory? Say above 16MB? I need to access this memory early on in the boot process. Can I access it after paging_init is called? If so, what is the API? Since I know the physical address I want to read, I just need a virtual address mapping for it. Can I use kmap? If so, will it work as soon as paging_init is called?
