Subject: Relation between PFN and page block ?
Date: Tue, 2 Aug 2011 03:31:41 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1312281101.75725.YahooMailNeo@web162015.mail.bf1.yahoo.com> (raw)
Dear All,
I am trying to understand the relation between "Page Frame Number" and "Page Block".
Like how to find out if a particular page frame is associated with which page block.
I have looked into Documentation/vm/pagemap but could not understand the exact mapping.
Can somebody explain me in detail how page frame number and page block are related.
Thanks,
Pintu
