This paragraph just confuses me.
It is a paraphrase of Catalin's comment: "I agree, we should only enable 4-levels of page table if we have close to 512GB of RAM or the range is too sparse but I would actually push back on the hardware guys to keep it tighter." The above message comes from the discussion on 4 levels. http://www.spinics.net/linux/lists/arm-kernel/msg319055.html > > > > References > > ---------- > > [1]: Principles of ARM Memory Maps, White Paper, Issue C > > > > Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.mari...@arm.com> > > Cc: Steve Capper <steve.cap...@linaro.org> > > Signed-off-by: Jungseok Lee <jays....@samsung.com> > > Reviewed-by: Sungjinn Chung <sungjinn.ch...@samsung.com> > > --- > > arch/arm64/Kconfig | 8 ++++++ > > arch/arm64/include/asm/memblock.h | 6 +++++ > > arch/arm64/include/asm/page.h | 4 ++- > > arch/arm64/include/asm/pgalloc.h | 20 ++++++++++++++ > > arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable-hwdef.h | 6 +++-- > > arch/arm64/include/asm/pgtable.h | 45 > > +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > arch/arm64/include/asm/tlb.h | 9 +++++++ > > arch/arm64/kernel/head.S | 46 > > +++++++++++++++++++++++++------- > > arch/arm64/kernel/traps.c | 5 ++++ > > arch/arm64/mm/fault.c | 1 + > > arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c | 16 ++++++++--- > > 11 files changed, 150 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) > > [ ... ] > > diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/head.S b/arch/arm64/kernel/head.S index > > 0fd5650..03ec424 100644 > > --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/head.S > > +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/head.S > > @@ -37,8 +37,9 @@ > > > > /* > > * swapper_pg_dir is the virtual address of the initial page table. > > We place > > - * the page tables 3 * PAGE_SIZE below KERNEL_RAM_VADDR.
