Why This File Exists

CPU and platform-specific kernel glue: boot entry, traps, syscall entry, interrupts, page tables, context switch, and low-level barriers.

/*
 * HIGHMEM API:
 *
 * kmap() API provides sleep semantics hence referred to as "permanent maps"
 * It allows mapping LAST_PKMAP pages, using @last_pkmap_nr as the cursor
 * for book-keeping
 *
 * kmap_atomic() can't sleep (calls pagefault_disable()), thus it provides
 * shortlived ala "temporary mappings" which historically were implemented as
 * fixmaps (compile time addr etc). Their book-keeping is done per cpu.
 *
 *	Both these facts combined (preemption disabled and per-cpu allocation)
 *	means the total number of concurrent fixmaps will be limited to max
 *	such allocations in a single control path. Thus KM_TYPE_NR (another
 *	historic relic) is a small'ish number which caps max percpu fixmaps
 *
 * ARC HIGHMEM Details
 *
 * - the kernel vaddr space from 0x7z to 0x8z (currently used by vmalloc/module)
 *   is now shared between vmalloc and kmap (non overlapping though)
 *
 * - Both fixmap/pkmap use a dedicated page table each, hooked up to swapper PGD
 *   This means each only has 1 PGDIR_SIZE worth of kvaddr mappings, which means
 *   2M of kvaddr space for typical config (8K page and 11:8:13 traversal split)
 *
 * - The fixed KMAP slots for kmap_local/atomic() require KM_MAX_IDX slots per
 *   CPU. So the number of CPUs sharing a single PTE page is limited.
 *
 * - pkmap being preemptible, in theory could do with more than 256 concurrent
 *   mappings. However, generic pkmap code: map_new_virtual(), doesn't traverse
 *   the PGD and only works with a single page table @pkmap_page_table, hence
 *   sets the limit
