[PATCH] kexec/x86_64: Use one page table in x86_64 kexec

Huang Ying ying.huang at intel.com
Tue Jan 6 21:52:41 EST 2009


Two page tables are used in current x86_64 kexec implementation. One
is used to jump from kernel virtual address to identity map address,
the other is used to map all physical memory. In fact, on x86_64,
there is no conflict between kernel virtual address space and physical
memory space, so just one page table is sufficient. The page table
pages used to map control page are dynamically allocated to save
memory if kexec image is not loaded. ASM code used to map control page
is replaced by C code too.
