Currently, when using VA_BITS < 48, if the ID map text happens to be placed in physical memory above VA_BITS, we increase the VA size (up to 48) and create a new table level, in order to map in the ID map text. This is okay because the system always supports 48 bits of VA. This patch extends the code such that if the system supports 52 bits of VA, and the ID map text is placed that high up, then we increase the VA size accordingly, up to 52. One difference from the current implementation is that so far the condition of VA_BITS < 48 has meant that the top level table is always "full", with the maximum number of entries, and an extra table level is always needed. Now, when VA_BITS = 48 (and using 64k pages), the top level table is not full, and we simply need to increase the number of entries in it, instead of creating a new table level.

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.
