This is definitely not a discussion I hoped for. Still, the i386 cannot have much benefit from the unmapped buffers, just because thre is no facilities similar to the direct map for amd64. i386 must use transient mapping even for unmapped buffers to copy the data to the usermode. Also, as I understand the history, VMIO buffers, or unified page/buffer cache, only appeared in the FreeBSD. --25+pmc5/5D73GfAV Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJQ0fgIAAoJEJDCuSvBvK1BMj8P/Au3nPzZZgXNjSEVpxSQ8gjD Wj3sr1XdtTuz3Y4lhmE6XLSy7mHyeS1HtNeoSSqZktHuteUE4DmtgyMuscHe+de+ heBQ7eob1sG7N363dibIUHMhkkWe/MZX8YZ50Jp/p13ij2ME4Um+jWtFVyn1VGNj 6hbH2uq0ClSYV9yI3iE+TJReWIeTfrSpNL535rGb7zoY7xlQh0LW74m0E7OE0/E+ oIaphXOkOn1OjL5PhYqX0TXeU+IB4vAxNPJmeetj8h9anWj8J+wMdP3s9Ki6xEwu dfj2ul0R2ddGG1Kkz+Dh3/22EXlpJIj2ahOkcRQkLB+K0PST3PGj7NQDnysh/bab OVCLc/o5S3t5LH4AF4LAsYc4OYrlkgVUx8O/AUoNSrZBZHu3RbxcSv3+FoQ3Dd9v UwqNkzuMPm6W8ZggJiiSZ6nwqR4Xc2EN6R+6qoI9fT3D6nPwcANDHOeOd/Xk7fz0 ntKgotw6zZtHjjpB7j3rJ243WgjNLJntYHfcvathCkD88IprLaLIU2RSMU8p6JRN mbBa7Mq4ksNVvDO+zaQz+8PawdkEaQv7mMsI/SP1owPU4uVCvJaOaEi5CIdumHum +BMj6bMBShkiZLjZUBx3hjdElU9SrGr+HYskWx0CPQP9X/n1FWejq98pKXfy2h22 eKRpEhjrmnpScYOcZEUg =FEJY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --25+pmc5/5D73GfAV--
