<an explanation about address spaces in EROS and COYOTOS>
I understood previously that everything always pays for its own storage. That
sounds good. However, I don't see how this can work.
There is a top level memory supply (called "prime space bank" if I remember
correctly). I guess this space bank will give out parts of its storage to
anyone holding a capability allowing them. How is this recorded? What
happens when the client is destroyed? That can happen without notifying the
prime space bank. I'm sure the prime space bank has some way to know that it
can give out the memory to an other process, but I don't see how.
Could you please explain this?
Thanks,
Bas
