The low 16MB of virtual address space are currently reserved for kernel mode allocations mapped into user virtual address space. This causes conflicts with HMM/SVM mappings at low virtual addresses. We tried to move those kernel mode allocations to the upper half of the 64-bit virtual address space for GFX9, which is naturally reserved for kernel use. However, TBA (trap handler code) has problems to access addresses in the high virtual space. We have decided to set this to 8KB of the lower address space as a temporary fix, while investigate TBA address problem. It is very unlikely for user space to map memory at this low region.

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.
