Subject: [Patch v2 0/6] Refactor split_mem_range with proper helper and loop
Date:   Thu,  5 Dec 2019 10:13:57 +0800

Precedence: bulk

split_mem_range is used to prepare range before mapping kernel page table.

After first version, Thomas suggested some brilliant idea to re-write the
logic.

Wei split the big patch into pieces and did some tests.  To verify the
functionality, Wei abstract the code into userland and did following test
cases:
    
        * ranges fits only 4K
        * ranges fits only 2M
        * ranges fits only 1G
        * ranges fits 4K and 2M
        * ranges fits 2M and 1G
        * ranges fits 4K, 2M and 1G
        * ranges fits 4K, 2M and 1G but w/o 1G size
        * ranges fits 4K, 2M and 1G with only 4K size
    
    Below is the test result:
    
        ### Split [4K, 16K][0x00001000-0x00004000]:
        [mem 0x00001000-0x00003fff] page size 4K
        ### Split [4M, 64M][0x00400000-0x04000000]:
        [mem 0x00400000-0x03ffffff] page size 2M
        ### Split [0G, 2G][0000000000-0x80000000]:
        [mem 0000000000-0x7fffffff] page size 1G
        ### Split [16K, 4M + 16K][0x00004000-0x00404000]:
        [mem 0x00004000-0x001fffff] page size 4K
        [mem 0x00200000-0x003fffff] page size 2M
        [mem 0x00400000-0x00403fff] page size 4K
        ### Split [4M, 2G + 2M][0x00400000-0x80200000]:
        [mem 0x00400000-0x3fffffff] page size 2M
        [mem 0x40000000-0x7fffffff] page size 1G
        [mem 0x80000000-0x801fffff] page size 2M
        ### Split [4M - 16K, 2G + 2M + 16K][0x003fc000-0x80204000]:
        [mem 0x003fc000-0x003fffff] page size 4K
        [mem 0x00400000-0x3fffffff] page size 2M
        [mem 0x40000000-0x7fffffff] page size 1G
        [mem 0x80000000-0x801fffff] page size 2M
        [mem 0x80200000-0x80203fff] page size 4K
        ### Split w/o 1G size [4M - 16K, 2G + 2M + 16K][0x003fc000-0x80204000]:
        [mem 0x003fc000-0x003fffff] page size 4K
        [mem 0x00400000-0x801fffff] page size 2M
        [mem 0x80200000-0x80203fff] page size 4K
        ### Split w/ only 4K [4M - 16K, 2G + 2M + 16K][0x003fc000-0x80204000]:
        [mem 0x003fc000-0x80203fff] page size 4K
