25 * The Page Table Code
27 * We use two-level page tables for the Guest. If you're not entirely
28 * comfortable with virtual addresses, physical addresses and page tables then
29 * I recommend you review arch/x86/lguest/boot.c's "Page Table Handling" (with
30 * diagrams!).
32 * The Guest keeps page tables, but we maintain the actual ones here: these are
33 * called "shadow" page tables. Which is a very Guest-centric name: these are
34 * the real page tables the CPU uses, although we keep them up to date to
35 * reflect the Guest's. (See what I mean about weird naming? Since when do
36 * shadows reflect anything?)
38 * Anyway, this is the most complicated part of the Host code. There are seven
39 * parts to this:
40 * (i) Looking up a page table entry when the Guest faults,
41 * (ii) Making sure the Guest stack is mapped,
42 * (iii) Setting up a page table entry when the Guest tells us one has changed,
43 * (iv) Switching page tables,
44 * (v) Flushing (throwing away) page tables,
45 * (vi) Mapping the Switcher when the Guest is about to run,
46 * (vii) Setting up the page tables initially.
