Memory segmentation: Difference between revisions

Content deleted Content added
Again, it's not as if using paging rather than segmentation was something that first happened with x86-64; very few OSes used segmentation on IA-32 except for 1) executable space protection on processors lacking the NX bit, 2) thread-local storage, and 3) running 16-bit programs that used segmentation to expand the address space. Relegate all the x86 weirdness to the x86 section and leave it out of the lead.
