- *
- * commit 4b239f458c229de044d6905c2b0f9fe16ed9e01e
- * Author: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org>
- * Date: Fri Dec 17 16:58:28 2010 -0800
- *
- * x86-64, mm: Put early page table high
- *
- * at some point init_memory_mapping is going to reach the pagetable pages
- * area and map those pages too (mapping them as normal memory that falls
- * in the range of addresses passed to init_memory_mapping as argument).
- * Some of those pages are already pagetable pages (they are in the range
- * pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end) therefore they are going to be mapped RO and
- * everything is fine.
- * Some of these pages are not pagetable pages yet (they fall in the range
- * pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top; for example the page at pgt_buf_end) so they
- * are going to be mapped RW. When these pages become pagetable pages and
- * are hooked into the pagetable, xen will find that the guest has already
- * a RW mapping of them somewhere and fail the operation.
- * The reason Xen requires pagetables to be RO is that the hypervisor needs
- * to verify that the pagetables are valid before using them. The validation
- * operations are called "pinning".
- *
- * In order to fix the issue we mark all the pages in the entire range
- * pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_top as RO, however when the pagetable allocation
- * is completed only the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end is reserved by
- * init_memory_mapping. Hence the kernel is going to crash as soon as one
- * of the pages in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top is reused (b/c those
- * ranges are RO).
- *
- * For this reason, 'mark_rw_past_pgt' is introduced which is called _after_
- * the init_memory_mapping has completed (in a perfect world we would
- * call this function from init_memory_mapping, but lets ignore that).
- *
- * Because we are called _after_ init_memory_mapping the pgt_buf_[start,
- * end,top] have all changed to new values (b/c init_memory_mapping
- * is called and setting up another new page-table). Hence, the first time
- * we enter this function, we save away the pgt_buf_start value and update
- * the pgt_buf_[end,top].
- *
- * When we detect that the "old" pgt_buf_start through pgt_buf_end
- * PFNs have been reserved (so memblock_x86_reserve_range has been called),
- * we immediately set out to RW the "old" pgt_buf_end through pgt_buf_top.
- *
- * And then we update those "old" pgt_buf_[end|top] with the new ones
- * so that we can redo this on the next pagetable.
