Buddy System bitmaps

2001-06-14 Thread Ramil . Santamaria
Hi, For this scenario consider a set of 4 page frames. Frames 0 and 2 are used while frames 1 and 3 are free. The question is would the bitmap for order 1 be a 1 or 0 for this scenario. I am not on the list so please cc me on your response. Thanks in advance. Ramil J.Santamaria Toshiba Americ

well... I doubt whether buddy allocator would take u to a situation where pages 0 and 2 are used and 1 and 3 are free... try reading __get_free_pages in mm/page_alloc.c [EMAIL PROTECTED] on 06/15/2001 12:39:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc:(bcc: Amol Lad/HSS) Subject: Buddy System
