ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus to improve addressing of device resources in variable page size environments are described. In one embodiment, an address conversion logic (which may be provided within a chipset in an embodiment) may convert a first address into a second address based on a difference between a first memory page size and the second memory page size. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
