Abstract
A method of allocating a physical memory in a specified address range under a Linux system platform is applied in a testing process of a physical memory under a Linux operating system. In this method, according to a specified address range and a size of a memory to be allocated, a large amount of physical memories in the system are allocated in a specified address range, and then the information about the allocated memories is transmitted, so as to map, inspect, and release the memories, thereby effectively supporting the test for physical memories under the Linux operating system.
