Hi tony,
This is the revised patch per comments.
We don't use index as parameter of ia64_ptr_entry,
Because it will cause the unconvenientce to user.

KVM supports more than 2GB of memory for x86_64 hosts. The following patch

I think we need to pass in the same start-end here as well.

I think we can get an _end call without
Notifier functions for hardware and software that establishes external
references to pages of a Linux system. The notifier calls ensure that
external mappings are removed when the Linux VM removes memory ranges
or individual pages from a process.
This first portion is fitting for external mmu's
The invalidation of address ranges in a mm_struct needs to be
performed when pages are removed or permissions etc change.
invalidate_range_begin/end() is frequently called with only mmap_sem
held. If invalidate_range_begin() is called with locks held then we
pass a flag into invalidate_range() to
Support for an additional 3rd class of users of mmu_notifier.
These special additional callbacks are required because XPmem does
use its own rmap (multiple processes on a serires of remote Linux instances
may be accessing the memory of a process). XPmem may have to send out
notifications to
This is a patchset implementing MMU notifier callbacks based on Andrea's
earlier work. These are needed if Linux pages are referenced from something
else than tracked by the rmaps of the kernel (an external MMU).

Right. I will fix that with an additional patch.
