37 * This structure defines the Physical Pages Manager in a cluster.
38 * In each cluster, the physical memory bank starts at local physical address 0 and
39 * contains an integer number of pages, defined by the <pages_nr> field in the
40 * boot_info structure. It is split in three parts:
41 *
42 * - the "kernel_code" section contains the kernel code, loaded by the boot-loader.
43 *   It starts at PPN = 0 and the size is defined by the <pages_offset> field in the
44 *   boot_info structure.
45 * - the "pages_tbl" section contains the physical page descriptors array. It starts
46 *   at PPN = pages_offset, and it contains one entry per small physical page in cluster.
47 *   It is created and initialized by the hal_ppm_create() function.
48 * - The "kernel_heap" section contains all physical pages that are are not in the
49 *   kernel_code and pages_tbl sections, and that have not been reserved by the
50 *   architecture specific bootloader. The reserved pages are defined in the boot_info
51 *   structure.
52 *
53 * The main service provided by the PMM is the dynamic allocation of physical pages
54 * from the "kernel_heap" section. This low-level allocator implements the buddy
55 * algorithm: an allocated block is an integer number n of small pages, where n
56 * is a power of 2, and ln(n) is called order.
57 * This allocator being shared by the local threads, the free_page lists rooted
58 * in the PPM descriptor are protected by a local busylock, because it is used
59 * by the idle_thread during kernel_init().
60 *
61 * Another service is to register the dirty pages in a specific dirty_list, that is
62 * also rooted in the PPM, in order to be able to save all dirty pages on disk.
63 * This dirty list is protected by a specific remote_queuelock, because it can be
64 * modified by a remote thread, but it contains only local pages.
