71 * pte.h rewritten by chuck based on the jolitz version, plus random
72 * info on the pentium and other processors found on the net. the
73 * goal of this rewrite is to provide enough documentation on the MMU
74 * hardware that the reader will be able to understand it without having
75 * to refer to a hardware manual.
85 * i386 MMU hardware structure (without PAE extension):
87 * the i386 MMU is a two-level MMU which maps 4GB of virtual memory.
88 * the pagesize is 4K (4096 [0x1000] bytes), although newer pentium
89 * processors can support a 4MB pagesize as well.
91 * the first level table (segment table?) is called a "page directory"
92 * and it contains 1024 page directory entries (PDEs). each PDE is
93 * 4 bytes (an int), so a PD fits in a single 4K page. this page is
94 * the page directory page (PDP). each PDE in a PDP maps 4MB of space
95 * (1024 * 4MB = 4GB). a PDE contains the physical address of the
96 * second level table: the page table. or, if 4MB pages are being used,
97 * then the PDE contains the PA of the 4MB page being mapped.
99 * a page table consists of 1024 page table entries (PTEs). each PTE is
100 * 4 bytes (an int), so a page table also fits in a single 4K page. a
101 * 4K page being used as a page table is called a page table page (PTP).
102 * each PTE in a PTP maps one 4K page (1024 * 4K = 4MB). a PTE contains
103 * the physical address of the page it maps and some flag bits (described
106 * the processor has a special register, "cr3", which points to the
107 * the PDP which is currently controlling the mappings of the virtual
110 * the following picture shows the translation process for a 4K page:
112 * %cr3 register [PA of PDP]
115 * | bits <31-22> of VA bits <21-12> of VA bits <11-0>
116 * | index the PDP (0 - 1023) index the PTP are the page offset
119 * +--->+----------+ | |
120 * | PD Page | PA of v |
121 * | |---PTP-------->+------------+ |
122 * | 1024 PDE | | page table |--PTE--+ |
123 * | entries | | (aka PTP) | | |
124 * +----------+ | 1024 PTE | | |
128 * bits <31-12> bits <11-0>
129 * p h y s i c a l a d d r
131 * the i386 caches PTEs in a TLB. it is important to flush out old
132 * TLB mappings when making a change to a mappings. writing to the
133 * %cr3 will flush the entire TLB. newer processors also have an
134 * instruction that will invalidate the mapping of a single page (which
135 * is useful if you are changing a single mappings because it preserves
136 * all the cached TLB entries).
138 * as shows, bits 31-12 of the PTE contain PA of the page being mapped.
139 * the rest of the PTE is defined as follows:
141 * 11 n/a available for OS use, hardware ignores it
142 * 10 n/a available for OS use, hardware ignores it
143 * 9 n/a available for OS use, hardware ignores it
144 * 8 G global bit (see discussion below)
145 * 7 PS page size [for PDEs] (0=4k, 1=4M <if supported>)
146 * 6 D dirty (modified) page
147 * 5 A accessed (referenced) page
148 * 4 PCD cache disable
149 * 3 PWT prevent write through (cache)
150 * 2 U/S user/supervisor bit (0=supervisor only, 1=both u&s)
151 * 1 R/W read/write bit (0=read only, 1=read-write)
152 * 0 P present (valid)
155 * - PS is only supported on newer processors
156 * - PTEs with the G bit are global in the sense that they are not
157 * flushed from the TLB when %cr3 is written (to flush, use the
158 * "flush single page" instruction). this is only supported on
159 * newer processors. this bit can be used to keep the kernel's
160 * TLB entries around while context switching. since the kernel
161 * is mapped into all processes at the same place it does not make
162 * sense to flush these entries when switching from one process'
165 * The PAE extension extends the size of the PTE to 64 bits (52bits physical
166 * address) and is compatible with the amd64 PTE format. The first level
167 * maps 2M, the second 1G, so a third level page table is intruduced to
168 * map the 4GB virtual address space. This PD has only 4 entries.
169 * We can't use recursive mapping at level 3 to map the PD pages, as
170 * this would eat one GB of address space. In addition, Xen impose restrictions
171 * on the entries we put in the L3 page (for example, the page pointed to by
172 * the last slot can't be shared among different L3 pages), which makes
173 * handling this L3 page in the same way we do for L2 on i386 (or L4 on amd64)
174 * difficult. For most things we'll just pretend to have only 2 levels,
175 * with the 2 high bits of the L2 index being in fact the index in the
179 #if !defined(_LOCORE)
