慢慢欣赏arm64内核启动15 primary_entry之__create_page_tables代码第四部分compute_indices

分析代码

/*
 * Compute indices of table entries from virtual address range. If multiple entries
 * were needed in the previous page table level then the next page table level is assumed
 * to be composed of multiple pages. (This effectively scales the end index).
 *
 *	vstart:	virtual address of start of range
 *	vend:	virtual address of end of range - we map [vstart, vend]
 *	shift:	shift used to transform virtual address into index
 *	ptrs:	number of entries in page table
 *	istart:	index in table corresponding to vstart
 *	iend:	index in table corresponding to vend
 *	count:	On entry: how many extra entries were required in previous level, scales
 *			  our end index.
 *		On exit: returns how many extra entries required for next page table level
 *
 * Preserves:	vstart, vend, shift, ptrs
 * Returns:	istart, iend, count
