commit 8c6a4963f07da518a74c35344bc9b28a84a78fee Author: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon Jul 25 15:37:34 2022 +0200 Commit: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Mon Jul 25 15:37:34 2022 +0200 x86: introduce helper for recording degree of contiguity in page tables This is a re-usable helper (kind of a template) which gets introduced without users so that the individual subsequent patches introducing such users can get committed independently of one another. See the comment at the top of the new file. To demonstrate the effect, if a page table had just 16 entries, this would be the set of markers for a page table with fully contiguous mappings: index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F marker 4 0 1 0 2 0 1 0 3 0 1 0 2 0 1 0 "Contiguous" here means not only present entries with successively increasing MFNs, each one suitably aligned for its slot, but also a respective number of all non-present entries.
