Message:

Support for kernel non-identity mappings, phase I.

  • identity/non-identity kernel memory split on all architectures
  • low/high physical memory split on all architectures
  • frame allocator understands low/high memory
  • high physical memory currently unused (Phase II)
  • more compact frame_t
  • zone conf frames, pte_t, kernel stacks allocated from low memory
  • lockless TLB-miss handlers everywhere (newly sparc64, ia64)
  • preallocate PTL1 page tables for non-identity and prevent their deallocation
  • hw_map() unification
  • new resource allocator used for allocating kernel virtual addresses

Breakage:

  • sparc64/sun4v creates too large kernel identity; not fixed because of lack of testing hw
  • ppc32's tlb_refill() seems wrong as it creates too large kernel identity, but appears unused and the architecture works normally

Not implemented yet (phase II):

  • allow high memory to be used for common kernel allocations
