When ident_pud_init() uses only gbpages to create identity maps, large ranges of addresses not actually requested can be included in the resulting table; a 4K request will map a full GB. On UV systems, this ends up including regions that will cause hardware to halt the system if accessed (these are marked "reserved" by BIOS). Even processor speculation into these regions is enough to trigger the system halt. Only use gbpages when map creation requests include the full GB page of space. Fall back to using smaller 2M pages when only portions of a GB page are included in the request. No attempt is made to coalesce mapping requests. If a request requires a map entry at the 2M (pmd) level, subsequent mapping requests within the same 1G region will also be at the pmd level, even if adjacent or overlapping such requests could have been combined to map a full gbpage. Existing usage starts with larger regions and then adds smaller regions, so this should not have any great consequence.

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.
