     82  * i386 MMU hardware structure:
     83  *
     84  * the i386 MMU is a two-level MMU which maps 4GB of virtual memory.
     85  * the pagesize is 4K (4096 [0x1000] bytes), although newer pentium
     86  * processors can support a 4MB pagesize as well.
     87  *
     88  * the first level table (segment table?) is called a "page directory"
     89  * and it contains 1024 page directory entries (PDEs).   each PDE is
     90  * 4 bytes (an int), so a PD fits in a single 4K page.   this page is
     91  * the page directory page (PDP).  each PDE in a PDP maps 4MB of space
     92  * (1024 * 4MB = 4GB).   a PDE contains the physical address of the
     93  * second level table: the page table.   or, if 4MB pages are being used,
     94  * then the PDE contains the PA of the 4MB page being mapped.
     95  *
     96  * a page table consists of 1024 page table entries (PTEs).  each PTE is
     97  * 4 bytes (an int), so a page table also fits in a single 4K page.  a
     98  * 4K page being used as a page table is called a page table page (PTP).
     99  * each PTE in a PTP maps one 4K page (1024 * 4K = 4MB).   a PTE contains
    100  * the physical address of the page it maps and some flag bits (described
    101  * below).
    102  *
    103  * the processor has a special register, "cr3", which points to the
    104  * the PDP which is currently controlling the mappings of the virtual
    105  * address space.
    106  *
    107  * the following picture shows the translation process for a 4K page:

    125  *                                                bits <31-12>   bits <11-0>
    126  *                                                p h y s i c a l  a d d r
    127  *
    128  * the i386 caches PTEs in a TLB.   it is important to flush out old
    129  * TLB mappings when making a change to a mappings.   writing to the
    130  * %cr3 will flush the entire TLB.    newer processors also have an
    131  * instruction that will invalidate the mapping of a single page (which
    132  * is useful if you are changing a single mappings because it preserves
    133  * all the cached TLB entries).
    134  *
    135  * as shows, bits 31-12 of the PTE contain PA of the page being mapped.
    136  * the rest of the PTE is defined as follows:
    137  *   bit#	name	use
    138  *   11		n/a	available for OS use, hardware ignores it
    139  *   10		n/a	available for OS use, hardware ignores it
    140  *   9		n/a	available for OS use, hardware ignores it
    141  *   8		G	global bit (see discussion below)
    142  *   7		PS	page size [for PDEs] (0=4k, 1=4M <if supported>)
    143  *   6		D	dirty (modified) page
    144  *   5		A	accessed (referenced) page
    145  *   4		PCD	cache disable
    146  *   3		PWT	prevent write through (cache)
    147  *   2		U/S	user/supervisor bit (0=supervisor only, 1=both u&s)
    148  *   1		R/W	read/write bit (0=read only, 1=read-write)
    149  *   0		P	present (valid)
    150  *
    151  * notes:
    152  *  - on the i386 the R/W bit is ignored if processor is in supervisor
    153  *    state (bug!)
    154  *  - PS is only supported on newer processors
    155  *  - PTEs with the G bit are global in the sense that they are not
    156  *    flushed from the TLB when %cr3 is written (to flush, use the
    157  *    "flush single page" instruction).   this is only supported on
    158  *    newer processors.    this bit can be used to keep the kernel's
    159  *    TLB entries around while context switching.   since the kernel
    160  *    is mapped into all processes at the same place it does not make
    161  *    sense to flush these entries when switching from one process'
    162  *    pmap to another.
