Hello ! since ECC (speaking in terms of ram/memory) is some widespread hardware technology within server/enterprise computing for protection of memory failure, i wonder:
Can`t this be done in software, too ? I didn`t find a referenc on this list, but i found an interesting paper i'd like to share at: http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/papers/softecc:ddopson-meng/softecc_ddopson-meng.pdf "SoftECC : A System for Software Memory Integrity Checking" Is it possible to implement something like this within the Linux virtual memory subsystem ? If it can be done, wouldn`t this be a great feature ? regards Roland K. system engineer - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
