In AIX on the PS/2 the real physical memory is already mapped into the kernel virtual memory. I forget the exact offset but it's documented in one of the include files in /usr/include/sys. There's also a set of macros which do the real memory address to kernel virtual address translation. If you can't find which include file documents this, send me some email and I'll dig up my notes on this (they're at work right now and I'm not :-). -- Mark Dapoz (mdapoz@hybrid.UUCP) ...uunet!mnetor!hybrid!mdapoz I remind you that humans are only a tiny minority in this galaxy. -- Spock, "The Apple," stardate 3715.6.
