During bootup Xen supplies us with a P2M array. It sticks
it right after the ramdisk, as can be seen with a 128GB PV guest:
(certain parts removed for clarity):
xc_dom_build_image: called
xc_dom_alloc_segment: kernel : 0xffffffff81000000 -> 0xffffffff81e43000 (pfn 0x1000 + 0xe43 pages)
xc_dom_pfn_to_ptr: domU mapping: pfn 0x1000+0xe43 at 0x7f097d8bf000
xc_dom_alloc_segment: ramdisk : 0xffffffff81e43000 -> 0xffffffff925c7000 (pfn 0x1e43 + 0x10784 pages)
xc_dom_pfn_to_ptr: domU mapping: pfn 0x1e43+0x10784 at 0x7f0952dd2000
xc_dom_alloc_segment: phys2mach : 0xffffffff925c7000 -> 0xffffffffa25c7000 (pfn 0x125c7 + 0x10000 pages)
xc_dom_pfn_to_ptr: domU mapping: pfn 0x125c7+0x10000 at 0x7f0942dd2000
xc_dom_alloc_page : start info : 0xffffffffa25c7000 (pfn 0x225c7)
xc_dom_alloc_page : xenstore : 0xffffffffa25c8000 (pfn 0x225c8)
xc_dom_alloc_page : console : 0xffffffffa25c9000 (pfn 0x225c9)
nr_page_tables: 0x0000ffffffffffff/48: 0xffff000000000000 -> 0xffffffffffffffff, 1 table(s)
nr_page_tables: 0x0000007fffffffff/39: 0xffffff8000000000 -> 0xffffffffffffffff, 1 table(s)
nr_page_tables: 0x000000003fffffff/30: 0xffffffff80000000 -> 0xffffffffbfffffff, 1 table(s)
nr_page_tables: 0x00000000001fffff/21: 0xffffffff80000000 -> 0xffffffffa27fffff, 276 table(s)
xc_dom_alloc_segment: page tables : 0xffffffffa25ca000 -> 0xffffffffa26e1000 (pfn 0x225ca + 0x117 pages)
xc_dom_pfn_to_ptr: domU mapping: pfn 0x225ca+0x117 at 0x7f097d7a8000
xc_dom_alloc_page : boot stack : 0xffffffffa26e1000 (pfn 0x226e1)
xc_dom_build_image : virt_alloc_end : 0xffffffffa26e2000
xc_dom_build_image : virt_pgtab_end : 0xffffffffa2800000
So the physical memory and virtual (using __START_KERNEL_map addresses)
layout looks as so:
phys __ka
/------------\ /-------------------\
| 0 | empty | 0xffffffff80000000|
| .. | | .. |
| 16MB | <= kernel starts | 0xffffffff81000000|
| .. | | |
| 30MB | <= kernel ends => | 0xffffffff81e43000|
| .. | & ramdisk starts | .. |
| 293MB | <= ramdisk ends=> | 0xffffffff925c7000|
| .. | & P2M starts | .. |
| .. | | .. |
| 549MB | <= P2M ends => | 0xffffffffa25c7000|
| .. | start_info | 0xffffffffa25c7000|
| .. | xenstore | 0xffffffffa25c8000|
| .. | cosole | 0xffffffffa25c9000|
| 549MB | <= page tables => | 0xffffffffa25ca000|
| .. | | |
| 550MB | <= PGT end => | 0xffffffffa26e1000|
| .. | boot stack | |
\------------/ \-------------------/
As can be seen, the ramdisk, P2M and pagetables are taking
a bit of __ka addresses space. Which is a problem since the
MODULES_VADDR starts at 0xffffffffa0000000 - and P2M sits
right in there! This results during bootup with the inability to
load modules, with this error:

Since the __va and __ka are 1:1 up to MODULES_VADDR and
cleanup_highmap rids __ka of the ramdisk mapping, what
we want to do is similar - get rid of the P2M in the __ka
address space. There are two ways of fixing this:
1) All P2M lookups instead of using the __ka address would
use the __va address. This means we can safely erase from
__ka space the PMD pointers that point to the PFNs for
P2M array and be OK.
2). Allocate a new array, copy the existing P2M into it,
revector the P2M tree to use that, and return the old
P2M to the memory allocate. This has the advantage that
it sets the stage for using XEN_ELF_NOTE_INIT_P2M
feature. That feature allows us to set the exact virtual
address space we want for the P2M - and allows us to
boot as initial domain on large machines.
So we pick option 2).
This patch only lays the groundwork in the P2M code. The patch
that modifies the MMU is called "xen/mmu: Copy and revector the P2M tree."
