I think 21264s can use larger address spaces but FreeBSD is currently limited to 43bit virtual (half for user, quarter for direct map physical->virtual and quarter for pte mapped kernel). Supporting 53bit addressing wouldn't be very hard. The main different is that it needs four levels of pagetables instead of three. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.

No. Someone needs to look at the NetBSD iso9660 boot module and boot module installer, and fix it to work like our current alpha boot module does.

The same problem potentially exists in the alpha if the kernel VM space overflows grows such that a new level 2 page table is needed (as you know, the alpha uses 3 levels of page tables and if a level 3 page table is added, nothing special needs to happen since the corresponding level 2 page table is already shared by all processes). The suggested fix looks as if it could be easily adapted to the alpha pmap. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.
