With a page granularity of 4KB and a address range of 32 bits, pfn 0 is at address 0x00000000, pfn 1 is at address 0x00001000, pfn 2 is at 0x00002000 and so on until we reach pfn 0xfffff at 0xfffff000. With 16KB pages pfs are -at 0x00004000, 0x00008000 ... 0xffffc000 and pfn goes from 0 to 0x3fffff. +at 0x00004000, 0x00008000 ... 0xffffc000 and pfn goes from 0 to 0x3ffff. As you can see, with 4KB pages the page base address uses bits 12-31 of the address, and this is why `PAGE_SHIFT` in this case is defined as 12 and |
