This document describes the virtual memory layout used by the RISC-V Linux
|
|
Kernel.

RISC-V Linux Kernel 32bit

RISC-V Linux Kernel 64bit
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
The RISC-V privileged architecture document states that the 64bit addresses
|
|
"must have bits 63–48 all equal to bit 47, or else a page-fault exception will
|
|
occur.": that splits the virtual address space into 2 halves separated by a very
|
|
big hole, the lower half is where the userspace resides, the upper half is where
|
|
the RISC-V Linux Kernel resides.
