The address bits masked for buddy address comparison.

The buddy system determines if two memory requests can be paired by

comparing bits 36-9 of the requests' physical addresses. However, the

comparison ignores the bits whose corresponding mask bits in this field are

set to 1. Conceptually, bits 36-9 in the physical address are ANDed with

the inverse (NOT) of bits 27-0 in this field before going into the

comparator.

This field accounts for the system's DRAM configuration. The intent is that

the buddy system improves DRAM bandwidth efficiency by pairing up memory

requests in a way that cuts down on DRAM management operations, such as

opening rows.
