The Israeli occupation is obscene.

The only reason the UN doesn't do anything is that other countries can't be bothered to send people to fight Israel and die there.

And the outcome of this is fundamentalism and indirect deaths elsewhere.

This is the basis of lasers.

x86 Paging Tutorial / Linux source tree Updated 2025-07-16

In v4.2, look under arch/x86/:

include/asm/pgtable*
include/asm/page*
mm/pgtable*
mm/page*

There seems to be no structs defined to represent the pages, only macros: include/asm/page_types.h is specially interesting. Excerpt:

#define _PAGE_BIT_PRESENT   0   /* is present */
#define _PAGE_BIT_RW        1   /* writeable */
#define _PAGE_BIT_USER      2   /* userspace addressable */
#define _PAGE_BIT_PWT       3   /* page write through */

arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/processor-flags.h defines CR0, and in particular the PG bit position:

#define X86_CR0_PG_BIT      31 /* Paging */

It is those early splinter groups that make it so clear that religion is fake. We believed in Judaism. Now we believe in Jesus. Oh, but wait, actually Judaism is now semi fake, and we don't live by Jewish law anymore.
