Re: [PATCH] make zone collector work without mmap


No.  One day the zone collector will be generational, and so
not only requrire mmap but also mprotect.

Yes. But it is possible to write one collector that is generational when mprotect is available, and not generational when it is not. I did so for GNU Smalltalk.


The existing ggc-page will not go away.

Okay.
