I appreciate that some of my previous questions may have been a little
uninformed, but now I really would like a simple answer:
In /sys/src/cmd/venti/fmtindex.c, the last section starts
addr = IndexBase;
n = 0;
...
and seemingly proceeeds to compute arena maps (amap[n]) based on the
arena size
amap[n].start = addr;
addr += ap->arenas[j]->size;
amap[n].stop = addr;
with, later:
ix->amap = amap;
Why is the start address "IndexBase" and not "ArenaBase"? And, in
my opinion, "addr" should be incremented by
ap->arenas[j]->size + 2 * ap->arenas[j]->blockSize
because ap->arenas[j]->size is generated (in arena.c:/initArena) by
arena->size = size - 2 * blockSize;
Please someone tell me where I'm going wrong!
