paging - multiple pages
paging - multiple pages
what if what you need to load one single thing (like a program) onto multiple pages with paging because it is bigger than the size of an actual page?
Re:paging - multiple pages
i dont want to load the program in pieces because then the memory addresses will get messed up because each new page has a virtual address of 0x0
Re:paging - multiple pages
Each virtual page is at a specific virtual address, you cannot have more than 1 page at the same virtual address in any one address space. Discontiguous physical pages make little difference (although I think there's something to do with "page coloring" where pages that are closer together are better managed by the CPU cache)
