V7 unix had it. Thats where the "uarea" aka u. comes in. Its one of the killer problems with Linux 8086 - on the 11 they could put the kernel stack file handles and other process local crap into a swappable segment that could also be swapped from the kernel address space. On the 8086 thats trickier - 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/
