.. note::

|
|
- Negative addresses such as "-23 TB" are absolute addresses in bytes, counted down
|
|
from the top of the 64-bit address space. It's easier to understand the layout
|
|
when seen both in absolute addresses and in distance-from-top notation.
|
|
|
|
For example 0xffffe90000000000 == -23 TB, it's 23 TB lower than the top of the
|
|
64-bit address space (ffffffffffffffff).
|
|
|
|
Note that as we get closer to the top of the address space, the notation changes
|
|
from TB to GB and then MB/KB.
|
|
|
|
- "16M TB" might look weird at first sight, but it's an easier to visualize size
|
|
notation than "16 EB", which few will recognize at first sight as 16 exabytes.
|
|
It also shows it nicely how incredibly large 64-bit address space is.

- With 56-bit addresses, user-space memory gets expanded by a factor of 512x,
|
|
from 0.125 PB to 64 PB. All kernel mappings shift down to the -64 PB starting
|
|
offset and many of the regions expand to support the much larger physical

|
memory supported.

Architecture defines a 64-bit virtual address. Implementations can support
|
|
less. Currently supported are 48- and 57-bit virtual addresses. Bits 63
|
|
through to the most-significant implemented bit are sign extended.
|
|
This causes hole between user space and kernel addresses if you interpret them
|
|
as unsigned.
|
|
|
|
The direct mapping covers all memory in the system up to the highest
|
|
memory address (this means in some cases it can also include PCI memory
|
|
holes).
|
|
|
|
vmalloc space is lazily synchronized into the different PML4/PML5 pages of
|
|
the processes using the page fault handler, with init_top_pgt as
|
|
reference.
|
|
|
|
We map EFI runtime services in the 'efi_pgd' PGD in a 64Gb large virtual
|
|
memory window (this size is arbitrary, it can be raised later if needed).
|
|
The mappings are not part of any other kernel PGD and are only available
|
|
during EFI runtime calls.
|
|
|
|
Note that if CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY is enabled, the direct mapping of all
|
|
physical memory, vmalloc/ioremap space and virtual memory map are randomized.
|
|
Their order is preserved but their base will be offset early at boot time.
|
|
|
|
Be very careful vs. KASLR when changing anything here. The KASLR address
|
|
range must not overlap with anything except the KASAN shadow area, which is
|
|
correct as KASAN disables KASLR.
|
|
|
|
For both 4- and 5-level layouts, the STACKLEAK_POISON value in the last 2MB
|
|
hole: ffffffffffff4111
