32-bit memory limits IN DETAIL (Was: perspectives on 32 bit vs 64 bit)
This seems to come up every now and then, so let me explain. None of this is new information, butt can be a bit confusing. First, i386 memory addressing. The i386 is unlike all other processors in that there are two levels of address translation that take place. First, we have a 16-bit segment + 32-bit offset VIRTUAL address. Now, 3 bits of that segment are sort of taken (2 bits of RPL and 1 local/global bit), so you really only get 8192 segments per process. This VIRTUAL address is then translated into a 32-bit LINEAR address by checking the offset against the segment limit and adding the segment base. Then this 32-bit LINEAR address is fed to a standard page-based MMU, producing a 32- or 36-bit PHYSICAL address. Most processors go VIRTUAL --page tables-- PHYSICAL. i386 goes VIRTUAL --segments-- LINEAR --page tables-- PHYSICAL. The bottleneck is the 32-bit LINEAR address space. A process can have at most 2^32 bytes addressible at any one time without the operating system rewriting the page tables. Note first of all that, if you actively use more than one segment at a time (such as for code, stack and data), this limits your maximum segment size to less than 2^32 bytes each, since the TOTAL of the sumultaneously accessible segments has to fit within 2^32 bytes. So, for example, if you had two segments of 4G, you could not have them both resident at the same time, and so you could not get a MOV instruction from one to the other to complete. (And the MOV instruction itself would have to go somewhere.) Thus, you can not actually reach the 2^45-byte addressing limit that up to 2^13 segments of up to 2^32 bytes each implies. Secondly, even if you do demand segmentation, bringing segments into and out of the 32-bit LINEAR address space, this still requires that the operating system rewrite the page tables (and invalidate the TLB entried) in response to segment faults in order to access the relevant bits of PHYSICAL memory. This is exactly the SAME operating system and hardware overhead as using mmap or mremap to remap bits of a linear address space. The only difference would be if it were much easier for the user program to deal with segments than to deal with explicit dynamic mmaps. And it's not at all clear that it is. For these reasons, 32-bit x86 operating systems tend to ignore the segmentation features and just use paging. It just isn't worth the complexity, and for multi-platform operating systems like Linux, it isn't worth the portability hassles. In fact, this has in turn led to x86 designers de-emphasizing segment register loading speed, so large model programs that use multiple segments take a significant speed hit. Now, for why the Linux kernel takes 1 GB of virtual address space... Every time a user-space program does a read() or write() call, or makes any similar system call that moves a buffer of data, the kernel has to copy between the user buffers and its own private file cache. For this to be possible, the two source and destination buffers must be in the same VIRTUAL address space. And for it to be remotely efficient, they have to be in the same LINEAR address space as well. Now, it is possible to have a separate kernel address space, and demand-map user-space buffers into it to do the copying. That's what the 4G+4G patches do. But that means that on EVERY system call, you have to change the page tables around, which results in flushing the TLB and a lot of overhead. The default Linux config arranges for the kernel's address space and the user's address space to both be present at the same time. Page table entries have a permission bit that lets them be inaccessible to user mode but accessed from kernel mode without having to reload the TLB. This is very fast. But it results in the classic split between 3G of user address space and 1G of kernel address space. It could be done different ways, but *any alternative would be much slower* for typical programs that don't need more than 3G of address space. The things that's causing a real problem is that common physical memory sizes are approaching the 4G address space. Thus, it's no longer guaranteed that the 1G of kernel space is big enough to hold all of physical memory, so kernel access to some parts of it has to be bank-switched (the CONFIG_HIGHMEM options). By careful design, this has been kept reasonably fast, but there is overhead. Because the kernel address space has to hold more than just RAM (in particular, it also has to hold memory-mapped PCI devices like video cards), if you have 1G of physical memory, the kernel will by default only use 896M of it, leaving 128M of kernel address space for PCI devices. A different user/kernel split can help there. I use 2.75/1.25G on 1G RAM machines, but if you use PAE or NX, the split has to be on a 1G boundary. But these are all workarounds. The real solution is to use a larger virtual address space so that the original, efficient technique of mapping

We definitly should send a bug report... Fellow the advice : change your kernel : others work *out of the box*. (i'm using 2.6.13 from kernel.org) Regards, Yannick
Re: soundcard not detected by alsaconf
Dean Hamstead a écrit : i dont know if the drivers not supporting the hardware counts as a bug i think its just new vendor id's and small changes to alsa, fairly normal stuff as new manufacturers ship the same basic chips.

(i'm using 2.6.13 from kernel.org) Regards, Yannick quote from this list : Hi Yannick, I ripped out the 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8 and reinstalled as 2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 and now alsa works perfectly. I just had to run alsaconf and the driver installed straight away and there is sound. Perhaps there really is a problem with 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8. Cheers, Jonathan It seems that that driver works in 2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 provided by debian but not in 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8, but i have not this test by myself... and several people repport problem with 2.6.11 from debian. So you can maybe try a *downgrade* your kernel if you can to test the theory ;) (but 2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 is no more availaible) Regards, Yannick

Re: nvidia driver installation problem
Hi, I can't help you with this particular problem but i maybe can give you some hope : i've tried to build the nvidia driver in debian way with 2.6.13 from kernel.org but i failed. The good news is i installed 7676 with the nvidia-installer (nvidia way) after removed the nvidia debian packages : i'm using it currently and as an exemple bzflag and ennemy-territory works very well here... But as i tried a lot of stuffs to get it work i can't provide you a process to follow. Regards, Yannick Azer Demir a écrit : hi everybody, yesterday i compiled 2.6.13 kernel, cause i hope to see my tv card detected automatically. i did compile with make-kpkg, and used 2.6.11-9-amd64-k8 kernel's config file. there was no problem during compile and after it. when i booted the system with 2.6.13 kernel, but kernel can't load nvidia module. i removed old nvidia-glx, nvidia-kernel-common packages, and prepapared for new nvidia driver installation. first, i run module-assistant and it made nvidia-kernel-2.6.13.20050917 package. after this, i got nvidia-graphics-drivers source package, and made the binary packages. but when i rebooted the system i saw that kernel still can't load nvidia module. now i want to give outputs of some commands. `dpkg -l | grep nvidia` - ii nvidia-glx1.0.7174-3 NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x driver ii nvidia-kernel-2.6.13.200509171.0.7174-3+r1NVIDIA binary kernel module for Linux 2.6.13 ii nvidia-kernel-common 1.0.7174-1NVIDIA binary kernel module common files ii nvidia-kernel-source 1.0.7174-3 NVIDIA binary kernel module source `locate nvidia.ko` /lib/modules/2.6.13.20050917/nvidia/nvidia.ko /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/debian/nvidia-kernel-2.6.13.20050917/lib/modules/2.6.13.20050917/nvidia/nvidia.ko /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel/debian/nvidia-kernel-2.6.8-11-amd64-generic/lib/modules/2.6.8-11-amd64-generic/nvidia/nvidia.ko the binary packages that i made by nvidia-graphics-drivers --- nvidia-glx_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb nvidia-glx-dev_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb nvidia-glx-ia32_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb nnvidia-kernel-source_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb at first, i suspected nvidia-kernel-common packet's different version number from others, i use testing, and i looked with apt-show-versions, nvidia-kernel-common is uptodate for testing, there is different versions in unstable and experimental. a question come on my mind that aren't these packages for nvidia driver enough, or did i install a package that is not necessary? a nvidia.ko module that i used with 2.6.8-11-amd64-generic kernel remain in the system as it can see from `locate nvidia.ko` output, can problem be a conflict of two 'nvidia.ko' module? i mean, didn't old nvidia driver files clean completely? if i didn't remember wrong, after nvidia driver installation, nvidia creates a devicce file(the name may be nvidia, isn't it?). i saw an error no such device, after i can't login by gdm. and when i try to modprobe nvidia, i get the same error. # modprobe nvidia FATAL: Error inserting nvidia (/lib/modules/2.6.13.20050917/nvidia/nvidia.ko): No such device the last possibility i think that the device nvidia creates is missing. $ ls /dev cdromptyc7 ptyq9 ptyub ptyydtty22 ttyb1 ttyp3 ttyt1 ttyx3 cdrw ptyc8 ptyqa ptyuc ptyyetty23 ttyb2 ttyp4 ttyt2 ttyx4 console ptyc9 ptyqb ptyud ptyyftty24 ttyb3 ttyp5 ttyt3 ttyx5 core ptyca ptyqc ptyue ptyz0tty25 ttyb4 ttyp6 ttyt4 ttyx6 fb0 ptycb ptyqd ptyuf ptyz1tty26 ttyb5 ttyp7 ttyt5 ttyx7 fb1 ptycc ptyqe ptyv0 ptyz2tty27 ttyb6 ttyp8 ttyt6 ttyx8 fd ptycd ptyqf ptyv1 ptyz3tty28 ttyb7 ttyp9 ttyt7 ttyx9 fd0 ptyce ptyr0 ptyv2 ptyz4tty29 ttyb8 ttypa ttyt8 ttyxa full ptycf ptyr1 ptyv3 ptyz5tty3 ttyb9 ttypb ttyt9 ttyxb hdd ptyd0 ptyr2 ptyv4 ptyz6tty30 ttyba ttypc ttyta ttyxc hpet ptyd1 ptyr3 ptyv5 ptyz7tty31 ttybb ttypd ttytb ttyxd initctl ptyd2 ptyr4 ptyv6 ptyz8tty32 ttybc ttype ttytc ttyxe inputptyd3 ptyr5 ptyv7 ptyz9tty33 ttybd ttypf ttytd ttyxf kmem ptyd4 ptyr6 ptyv8 ptyzatty34 ttybe ttyq0 ttyte ttyy0 kmsg ptyd5 ptyr7 ptyv9 ptyzbtty35 ttybf ttyq1 ttytf ttyy1 log ptyd6 ptyr8 ptyva ptyzctty36 ttyc0 ttyq2 ttyu0 ttyy2 loop ptyd7 ptyr9 ptyvb ptyzdtty37 ttyc1 ttyq3 ttyu1 ttyy3 MAKEDEV ptyd8 ptyra ptyvc ptyzetty38 ttyc2 ttyq4 ttyu2 ttyy4 mcelog ptyd9 ptyrb ptyvd ptyzftty39 ttyc3 ttyq5 ttyu3 ttyy5 mem ptyda ptyrc ptyve radio0 tty4 ttyc4 ttyq6 ttyu4 ttyy6 net ptydb ptyrd ptyvf ram0 tty40 ttyc5 ttyq7 ttyu5 ttyy7 null ptydc ptyre ptyw0 ram1 tty41 ttyc6 ttyq8 ttyu6 ttyy8

Re: installing the nvidia driver (nvidia-kernel-1.0.7174...)
Ignacio José a écrit : First at all thank you for all your replies. Finally I did proceed following the next steps: - m-a -t prepare - m-a -k /usr/src/linux a-i nvidia I compiled my kernel from source and its source is located at /usr/src/linux. I'm using the 2.6.13.1 version. The above instructions were completed successfully: the nvidia-kernel package was created and also it was installed without any problem. I run modprobe nvidia to make a test and it seems to work. Later I modified the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file: - I did comment the GLCore and dri lines - I change the driver to nvidia But... when the gdm tries to run it throws an error. Into the XFree log file i found the following lines: (EE): Failed to load module nvidia (module does not exist, 0) (EE): No drivers availabe What is happening? It sounds strange because i can load the module running modprobe... :-( Now i'm writing from a i386 Debian Sid and the XF86Config-4 files is exactly equal to the file which i'm using in the amd64 version.

So i've done this : #apt-get install kernel-package #MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-3.4" make-kpkg --append-to-version -11-amd64-k8 modules_image (in the right directory /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.8-11-amd64-k8 for me) then i found the package here : /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.8/modules/nvidia-kernel-2.6.8-11-amd64-k8_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb i cd in, then dpkg -i nvidia-kernel-2.6.8-11-amd64-k8_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb Then i came back to the package i've downloaded #dpkg -i nvidia-glx_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb # dpkg -i nvidia-glx-dev_1.0.7174-3_amd64.deb (with an apt-get -f install to get all dependies needed) It's installed, i'll try it now...

Re: Are there jigdo-images for sarge amd64?
Officialy unofficial images will appear soon. We are laging a bit behind to make sure we are in sync with sarge as much as possible and are correcting last minute flaws and adding some release/install docs. But it should be just a few more days till we declare a CD/DVD set build as the sarge amd64 release. So if you are looking to master CD/DVDs for sale please wait a bit longer. Thanks for the detailed answer. I don't master CD/DVDs, just sell a few burned dvds. PS: Would you prefer a dual layer dvd iso instead of 2 single layer images? Last I checked amd64 would fit on one. A release of a dual layer dvd image would be a good thing, if it isn't too complicated to do. MfG Josef G. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
