Conceptually, we want the memory mappings to always be up to date and represent whatever is in the TLB. To ensure that, we need to sync them over in the userspace case and for the kernel we need to process the mappings. The kernel will call flush_tlb_* if page table entries that were valid before become invalid. Unfortunately, this is not the case if entries are added. As such, change both flush_tlb_* and set_ptes to track the memory range that has to be synchronized. For the kernel, we need to execute a flush_tlb_kern_* immediately but we can wait for the first page fault in case of set_ptes. For userspace in contrast we only store that a range of memory needs to be synced and do so whenever we switch to that process.

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 reStructuredText 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.
