IS_KSEG_VA(9r)IS_KSEG_VA(9r)NAME
IS_KSEG_VA, IS_SEG0_VA, IS_SEG1_VA - General: Determine if the specified address is located in the kernel-unmapped address space, the user-
mapped address space, and the kernel-mapped address space.
SYNOPSIS
void IS_KSEG_VA(
unsigned long addr ); void IS_SEG0_VA(
unsigned long addr ); void IS_SEG1_VA(
unsigned long addr );
ARGUMENTS
Specifies the virtual address.
DESCRIPTION
The IS_KSEG_VA routine determines if the specified address is located in the kernel-unmapped address space. The IS_SEG0_VA routine deter-
mines if the specified address is located in the user-mapped address space. The IS_SEG1_VA routine determines if the specified address is
located in the kernel-mapped address space.
RETURN VALUES
None
EXAMPLE
The following code fragment shows a call to IS_KSEG_VA:
. . .
caddr_t virt_addr; [1] unsigned phys_addr; [2]
. . .
if(IS_KSEG_VA(virt_addr)) { [3]
phys_addr = KSEG_TO_PHYS(virt_addr); [4]
. . .
Declares a variable to store the user buffer's virtual address. Declares a variable to store the physical address returned by
KSEG_TO_PHYS. Before calling KSEG_TO_PHYS, calls IS_KSEG_VA to determine if the virtual address is from the kernel-unmapped address space.
If the virtual address is from the kernel-unmapped address space, then calls KSEG_TO_PHYS to convert the address to a corresponding physi-
cal address.

as kernel keeps track of user activities on a file by its INODE number and I node table .
what is the structure of Inode table. and where does this Inode table mapped into?user space or kernel space?
is the Inode Number is fixed for a file till its deletion?

how can i find my own ip address from unix. command like who -x .this would provide all the ip address but i need to list only current user ip address. who am i command does not display the ip. (1 Reply)

Hi,
I am looking to work on unix systems which include (hp-ux, ibm aix, solaris and linux). I want to get the total virtual address space of a process, the used virtual memory i am able to get without any problem. I have tried using getrlimit and getrlimit64, but that gives only ... (4 Replies)
Hi All,
From C++, I just want to find the address space size that a process is allowed to use. For ex, in 32 bit OS the allowed address space is 4GB and in 64 bit OS I guess this is 16GB or more.
I jsut want to find it in my C++ project. Is there any API calls that gives me such information.... (2 Replies)
Hi guys,
I got one problem which I definetily no idea.
What would the physical address be for virtual address?
1) 2ABC
2) 3F4B

Suppose I have 3 gb of ram and 250 gb hard disk in my pc.
Now I wrote a simple C program having only one statement malloc() to allocate 4 gb of memory as 32 bit os can address 4gb address space then will the malloc succeed?
If yes then how it will get extra 1 gb of memory?
Does the process gets... (3 Replies)
