It's mainly a convenient way of stuffing * module segments and ad-hoc symbols together. It will also help out * when the debugger gets extended to deal with user processes later. * * There are two standard address spaces that will always be present: * - The physical address space. * - The global virtual address space. * * Additional address spaces will be added and removed at runtime for * guest processes. The global virtual address space will be used to * track the kernel parts of the OS, or at least the bits of the kernel * that is part of all address spaces (mac os x and 4G/4G patched linux). * */
