Subject[RFC v4][PATCH part-2 00/13] ASI - Part II (Decorated Page-Table)
Date
This is part II of ASI RFC v4. Please refer to the cover letter of
part I for an overview the ASI RFC.

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200504144939.11318-1-alexandre.chartre@oracle.com/

This part introduces decorated page-table which encapsulate native page
table (e.g. a PGD) in order to provide convenient page-table management
functions, such as tracking address range mapped in a page-table or
safely handling references to another page-table.

Decorated page-table can then be used to easily create and manage page
tables to be used with ASI. It will be used by the ASI test driver (see
part III) and later by KVM ASI.

Decorated page-table is independent of ASI, and can potentially be used
anywhere a page-table is needed.

Thanks,

alex.
