map_lowmem

map_lowmem函数的作用就是映射lowmem区间，该区间的映射用到L1页表:

aries

[ 0.000000] lowmem : 0xc0000000 - 0xef800000 ( 760 MB)

memblock

path: arch/arm/mm/mmu.c

static void __init map_lowmem(void)

{

struct memblock_region *reg;

/* 1.计算kernel的起始物理地址 */

unsigned long kernel_x_start = round_down(__pa(_stext), SECTION_SIZE);

/* 2.计算__init_end的物理地址 */

unsigned long kernel_x_end = round_up(__pa(__init_end), SECTION_SIZE);

/* Map all the lowmem memory banks. */

for_each_memblock(memory, reg) {

phys_addr_t start = reg->base;

phys_addr_t end = start + reg->size;

struct map_desc map;

printk(KERN_CRIT "liminghao: %s(%llx~%llx)\n",

__FUNCTION__,

(unsigned long long)start,

(unsigned long long)end);

printk(KERN_CRIT "liminghao: %s(%llx~%llx)\n",

__FUNCTION__,

(unsigned long long)__phys_to_virt(start),

(unsigned long long)__phys_to_virt(end));

在memblock机制应用中有提到，系统中所有的内存块都在启动时被注册到memblock中以

struct memblock_region的形式存在。map_lowmem的作用就是将以struct memblock_region类型的

内存节点转换为struct map_desc类型然后传递给create_mapping。
