接前一篇文章:Linux内核内存管理源码分析之init-mm.c(1)
本文内容参考:https://www.cnblogs.com/mysky007/p/12317831.html
上回说到了swapper_pg_dir和init_top_gpt。再次给出内核源码中init_top_gpt的说明,在Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/vmcoreinfo.rst中:
init_top_pgt
------------
Used to walk through the whole page table and convert virtual addresses
to physical addresses. The init_top_pgt is somewhat similar to
swapper_pg_dir, but it is only used in x86_64.
由以上介绍可以看到,init_top_pgt是x86架构所独有的。
内核页表
和用户态页表不同,在系统初始化的时候,就要创建内核页表了。swapper_pg_dir指向内核最顶级的目录pgd,也就是内核页表的根。
前文已经指出了swapper_pg_dir是宏定义,本文来看更多相关内容。在arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_64.h中,代码如下:
extern p4d_t level4_kernel_pgt[512];
extern p4d_t level4_ident_pgt[512];
extern pud_t level3_kernel_pgt[512];
extern pud_t level3_ident_pgt[512];
extern pmd_t level2_kernel_pgt[512];
extern pmd_t level2_fixmap_pgt[512];
extern pmd_t level2_ident_pgt[512];
extern pte_t level1_fixmap_pgt[512 * FIXMAP_PMD_NUM];
extern pgd_t init_top_pgt[];
#define swapper_pg_dir init_top_pgt
上述代码中,除了swapper_pg_dir 指向内核最顶级的目录pgd外,同时出现的还有几个页表目录。其中:
XXX_ident_pgt —— 对应的是直接映射区;
XXX_kernel_pgt —— 对应的是内核代码区;
XXX_fixmap_pgt —— 对应的是固定映射区。
那么init_top_gpt以及XXX_ident_pgt、XXX_kernel_pgt、XXX_fixmap_pgt这些变量都是在哪里初始化的呢?是在arch/x86/kernel/head_64.S中:

如下图所示:
内核页表顶级目录 init_top_pgt包括3项:
(1) level3_ident_pgt
即直接映射区页表的三级目录。因为level3_ident_pgt是定义在虚拟地址的内核代码段里的(写代码的时候,使用的都是虚拟地址,此时谁也不无法知道将来加载的物理地址是多少),而 __START_KERNEL_map正是虚拟地址空间的内核代码段的起始地址,因此level3_ident_pgt减去__START_KERNEL_map才转换为物理地址。
(2)PGD_PAGE_OFFSET
__PAGE_OFFSET_BASE 是虚拟地址空间里面内核的起始地址。第二项也指向 level3_ident_pgt,直接映射区。
(3)level3_kernel_pgt
内核代码区。
