22:1722:17, 5 January 2025 diff hist +939 Memory management unit →x86: Describe how segmentation works in the no-MMU processors, the 80286 in protected mode, and subsequent processors in protected+paging mode. Mention Intel 5-level paging.
20:3020:30, 5 January 2025 diff hist +255 Memory management unit →Examples: Have just one section for x86, all the way from the 8086 to x86-64. Briefly mention the no-MMU 8086/8088/80186/80188 processors and the 80286, with a segmentation-but-no-paging MMU.
20:2220:22, 5 January 2025 diff hist −452 Memory management unit →IA-32 / x86: The memory controller isn't relevant here; even machines without an MMU have to connect to main memory with a memory controller.

22:1522:15, 1 January 2025 diff hist +8 Mac transition to Apple silicon →Background: Use {{as of}} for a statement that may no longer be true at some point in the future.
22:1222:12, 1 January 2025 diff hist +6 Mac transition to Apple silicon →Background: The switch to PPC was in 1994; it was developed before that, so move "in 1994" to make that clearer. Explicitly state that Apple, IBM, and Motorola co-developed PPC, mentioning all three, to make it clearer.
22:0722:07, 1 January 2025 diff hist +923 Mac transition to Apple silicon rv unexplained removal of wikilinks and references.
22:0622:06, 1 January 2025 diff hist +34 Mac transition to Apple silicon Have the first paragraph mirror the first paragraph of Mac transition to Intel processors, so that it directly says what the transition was.

10:0010:00, 1 January 2025 diff hist +112 Spawn (computing) →POSIX spawn functions: Linux is used in places other than embedded environments, as are various Darwin-based OSes, and they both have what appears to be (in the case of Linux kernel+GNU libc) and what definitely is (in the case of Darwin) implementations that aren't done atop fork/vfork. current
09:5709:57, 1 January 2025 diff hist +6 Exec (system call) →Alternatives: posix_spawn() does *not* appear to be implemented with vfork in recent versions of GNU libc, so it does not appear to be implemented with vfork on Linuxes, and it's definitely not implemented with vfork (or fork) on macOS, it's a separate system call; those are, I think, the two UN*Xes with the highest number of seats. I'll have to check what Illumos does, as it probably reflects what Solaris does, and look at various *BSD*s.
09:5409:54, 1 January 2025 diff hist +21 Qshell →Commands: Go to the relevant section of exec (system call). current

09:2909:29, 1 January 2025 diff hist +1,559 Talk:List of ARM processors →ARMv9.6-A, ARMv9.6-M and ARMv9.6-R: ARMv9-R and ARMv9-M don't exist, so ARMv9.6-M and ARMv9.6-R don't exist. ARMv9.6-A exists, and is summarized in AArch64#ARMv9.6-A, but I suspect there aren't any ARMv9.6-A cores yet, so this page has nothing to discuss about ARMv9.6-A. current

The Deterministic Networking Alliance now lacks a "5G" in front of its name, but has it in front of the abbreviation and domain name. Update the "as of" date (it's not yet January 2025 where I am, but it soon will be).
