The size of the vmemmap section is hardcoded to 1 TB to support the
maximum amount of system RAM in 4-level paging mode - 64 TB.
However, 1 TB is not enough for vmemmap in 5-level paging mode. Assuming
the size of struct page is 64 Bytes, to support 4 PB system RAM in 5-level,
64 TB of vmemmap area is needed:
4 * 1000^5 PB / 4096 bytes page size * 64 bytes per page struct / 1000^4 TB = 62.5 TB.
This hardcoding may cause vmemmap to corrupt the following
cpu_entry_area section, if KASLR puts vmemmap very close to it and the
actual vmemmap size is bigger than 1 TB.
So calculate the actual size of the vmemmap region needed and then align
it up to 1 TB boundary.
In 4-level paging mode it is always 1 TB. In 5-level it's adjusted on
demand. The current code reserves 0.5 PB for vmemmap on 5-level. With
this change, the space can be saved and thus used to increase entropy
for the randomization.
[ bp: Spell out how the 64 TB needed for vmemmap is computed and massage commit
message. ]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
