I think everyone is suggesting the same general path, and I'm gratified to know that the buddy system code anticipates non-contiguous physical memory. I think you'd want to extend the design limit (XKSEG0) beyond 1 TB to handle the next rev of silicon. I'd suggest 64 TB (48 bits) as the appropriate goal. g -- Greg Chesson |
