Hi,=0A=0AWhat is the=A0memmap=A0equivalent of Linux in=A0FreeBSD?=0A=0AIn L= inux=A0memmap=A0is used to reserve a portion of physical memory. This is us= ed as a kernel boot argument. E.g.: memmap=3D2G$1G will reserve 1GB=A0memor= y above 2GB,=A0=A0incase=A0I=A0have 3GB=A0RAM. This 1GB=A0reserved memory i= s not visible to=A0the=A0OS, however this 1GB=A0can be used using ioremap.= =A0=0AHow can=A0I=A0reserve memory in=A0FreeBSD and later use it=A0i.e=A0me= mmap=A0and=A0ioremap=A0equivalent?=0A=0AI have tried using hw.physmem loade= r parameter.=0AI have 3 GB system memory and=A0I=A0have set=A0hw.physmem=3D= 2G.=A0=0A=0A=0Asysctl -a=A0shows:=0Ahw.physmem: 2.12G=0A=0Ahw.usermem: 1.9G= =0Ahw.realmem: 2.15G=0A=0Adevinfo -rv=A0shows:=0Aram0:=A0=0A=0A0x00-0x9f3ff= =A0=0A0x10000000-0xbfedffff=A0=0A0xbff00000-0xbfffffff=0A=0AHere, looks lik= e it is showing the full 3 GB mapping.=0ANow, how do=A0I=A0know which is th= at 1 GB available memory (In Linux, this memory is shown as reserved in /pr= oc/iomem under System RAM)=A0? Also, which function(similar to=A0ioremap) s= hould=A0I=A0call to map the physical address to virtual address?=0A=0A=0ATh= anks.
