Previously it was called `Logical Memory Block`, but with the [patch](https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/7/13/68) by Yinghai Lu, it was renamed to the `memblock`. As Linux kernel for `x86_64` architecture uses this method. We already met `memblock` in the [Last preparations before the kernel entry point](http://0xax.gitbooks.io/linux-insides/content/Initialization/linux-initialization-3.html) part. And now it's time to get acquainted with it closer. We will see how it is implemented. -We will start to learn `memblock` from the data structures. Definitions of all logical memory block related data structures can be found in the [include/linux/memblock.h](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/16f73eb02d7e1765ccab3d2018e0bd98eb93d973/include/linux/memblock.h) header file. +We will start to learn `memblock` from the data structures.
