Hi, I'm just about to create a patch for full PAT support in the Linux kernel, including Xen. For this purpose I introduce a translation between cache modes and pte bits.
Scanning the kernel sources for usage of the cache mode bits in the pte I discovered drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_gtt.h is using _PAGE_PCD, _PAGE_PWT and _PAGE_PAT. I think those defines are used to create ptes not for usage by the main processor, but for the graphics processor. Is this true? In this case I'd suggest to define i915-specific macros instead of using the x86 ones.
