Adds support for: - 64KiB big page size. - System-memory PTs. - LPTE "invalid" state. - (Tegra) Use of video memory aperture. Adds support for marking LPTEs invalid, resulting in the corresponding SPTEs being ignored, which is supposed to speed up TLB invalidates. On The Tegra side, this will switch to using the video memory aperture for all mappings. The HW will still target non-coherent system memory, but this aperture needs to be selected in order to support compression. Tegra's instmem backend somewhat cheated to get this effect previously.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
