Today nohash/64 have linear memory based at 0xc000000000000000 and virtual memory based at 0x8000000000000000. In order to implement KASAN, we need to regroup both areas. Move virtual memmory at 0xc000100000000000. This complicates a bit TLB miss handlers. Until now, memory region was easily identified with the 4 higher bits of address: - 0 ==> User - c ==> Linear Memory - 8 ==> Virtual Memory Now we need to rely on the 20 higher bits, with: - 0xxxx ==> User - c0000 ==> Linear Memory - c0001 ==> Virtual Memory Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/4b225168031449fc34fc7132f3923cc8dc54af60.1656427701.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
