I had a question regarding memory allocation. On a contemporary system, the kernel will allocate physical frames on the DRAM based on availability. Is it possible for the kernel to somehow restrict frame allocation for a particular process to a particular address range. For e.g. Lets assume the DRAM ranges from 00-FF, on a contemporary system, the entire range is available for the kernel to allocate to the processes. Is it possible for the kernel to say PID 1: the frames will be allocated only in 00-A0, PID2: the frames will be allocated from A1 - D0 and PID3: will get frames from D1 - FF.
Thanks for your time and help in advance and I really hope someone can help me with this question
