Hi,

I'm using alloc_bootmem_pages to reserve a chunk of physical RAM,
for use by a PCI card and a user-level program. Something appears
to be going wrong though. Am I right in assuming that memory
allocated through alloc_bootmem_pages remains reserved and
un-swapable ? My attempts to get this to work are being less
than successful, any help appreciated.

Thanks,

-- Fred
