* This file assumes 4kB pages throughout; can be factored out when necessary.

- * Address format is as follows:
+ * There is a configurable number of page table entries, as well as a
+ * configurable bit index for the extended address flag. Both of these are
+ * specified in gasket_page_table_init through the page_table_config parameter.
+ *
+ * The following example assumes:
+ * page_table_config->total_entries = 8192
+ * page_table_config->extended_bit = 63
+ *
+ * Address format:
* Simple addresses - those whose containing pages are directly placed in the
* device's address translation registers - are laid out as:
- * [ 63 - 40: Unused | 39 - 28: 0 | 27 - 12: page index | 11 - 0: page offset ]
+ * [ 63 - 25: 0 | 24 - 12: page index | 11 - 0: page offset ]
* page index: The index of the containing page in the device's address
* translation registers.
* page offset: The index of the address into the containing page.
