I've read of it in some of the -mm announcement that I no more find. I even thought I dreamt it, but I found this sentence in the 2.6.1-mm1 announcement: Dropped the remap_file_pages() and prefault work - it is suspected of causing stability problems. That work is not directly related to UML, but I somewhere (from you?) read about the idea of using that to solve the need for UML to mmap pages one at a time. And that seems meaningful enough to me. I would like to discuss it here, because maybe there could be other ways to solve it (I had one idea, but it is probably bad - so for now I don't post it). -- Paolo Giarrusso, aka Blaisorblade Linux registered user n. 292729 ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
