| |
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
These patches are based on work from a team at Graz University of Technology posted here: https://github.com/IAIK/KAISER
The KAISER approach keeps two copies of the page tables: one for running in the kernel and one for running userspace. But, there are a few structures that are needed for switching in and out of the kernel and a good subset of *those* are per-cpu data.
Here's a short summary of the things mapped to userspace: * The gdt_page's virtual address is pointed to by the LGDT instruction. It is needed to define the segments. Deeply required by CPU to run. * cpu_tss tells the CPU, among other things, where the new stacks are after user<->kernel transitions. Needed by the CPU to make ring transitions. * exception_stacks are needed at interrupt and exception entry so that there is storage for, among other things, some temporary space to permit clobbering a register to load the kernel CR3.
