This is a trivial fix to correct upper bound addresses to always be inclusive. Previously, the majority of ranges specified were inclusive with a small minority specifying an exclusive upper bound. This patch fixes this inconsistency. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lstoakes@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

Virtual memory map with 4 level page tables:
|
|
|
|
0000000000000000 - 00007fffffffffff (=47 bits) user space, different per mm
|
|
hole caused by [48:63] sign extension
|
|
ffff800000000000 - ffff87ffffffffff (=43 bits) guard hole, reserved for hypervisor
|
|
ffff880000000000 - ffffc7ffffffffff (=64 TB) direct mapping of all phys. memory
|
|
ffffc80000000000 - ffffc8ffffffffff (=40 bits) hole
|
|
ffffc90000000000 - ffffe8ffffffffff (=45 bits) vmalloc/ioremap space
|
|
ffffe90000000000 - ffffe9ffffffffff (=40 bits) hole
|
|
ffffea0000000000 - ffffeaffffffffff (=40 bits) virtual memory map (1TB)
|
|
... unused hole ...
|
|
ffffec0000000000 - fffffbffffffffff (=44 bits) kasan shadow memory (16TB)
|
|
... unused hole ...
|
|
ffffff0000000000 - ffffff7fffffffff (=39 bits) %esp fixup stacks
|
|
... unused hole ...
|
|
ffffffef00000000 - fffffffeffffffff (=64 GB) EFI region mapping space
|
|
... unused hole ...
|
|
ffffffff80000000 - ffffffff9fffffff (=512 MB) kernel text mapping, from phys 0
|
|
ffffffffa0000000 - ffffffffff5fffff (=1526 MB) module mapping space
|
|
ffffffffff600000 - ffffffffffdfffff (=8 MB) vsyscalls
|
|
ffffffffffe00000 - ffffffffffffffff (=2 MB) unused hole
|
|
|
|
The direct mapping covers all memory in the system up to the highest
|
|
memory address (this means in some cases it can also include PCI memory
|
|
holes).
|
|
|
|
vmalloc space is lazily synchronized into the different PML4 pages of
|
|
the processes using the page fault handler, with init_level4_pgt as
|
|
reference.
|
|
|
|
Current X86-64 implementations support up to 46 bits of address space (64 TB),
|
|
which is our current limit. This expands into MBZ space in the page tables.
|
|
|
|
We map EFI runtime services in the 'efi_pgd' PGD in a 64Gb large virtual
|
|
memory window (this size is arbitrary, it can be raised later if needed).
|
|
The mappings are not part of any other kernel PGD and are only available
|
|
during EFI runtime calls.
|
|
|
|
Note that if CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY is enabled, the direct mapping of all
|
|
physical memory, vmalloc/ioremap space and virtual memory map are randomized.
|
|
Their order is preserved but their base will be offset early at boot time.
