Hi.
I guess the subject says it all, but I'll give more detail:
I'm working on Suspend on a 8 cpu ("8 way"?) SMP box at OSDL, which has
something in excess of 4GB, but I'm only using 4 at the moment:
Warning only 4GB will be used.
Use a PAE enabled kernel.
3200MB HIGHMEM available.
896MB LOWMEM available.
When suspending, I am seeing pages that don't have the HighMem flag set,
but for which page_address returns zero.
I looked at kmap, and noticed that it tests for page <
highmem_start_page; I guess this is the way to do it?
Regards,
Nigel
