Ok, assuming you only have 52 bits of physical address space: the sparse vmemmap takes 1TB and you're left with 3.9PB of address space for other things. So, again, why doesn't that work? Is my math wrong? Logan _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list Linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-nvdimm
