This branch contains vastly improoved kernel memory subsystem with following new features: * 2M/1G pages * Lazy copying/lazy memory allocation * Used for speeding up ASAN memory allocation * Kernel memory is also lazily allocated * NX flag * Buddy physical memory allocator * O((log N)^2) region manipulation * More convinient syscall API * IPC with memory regions of size larger than 4K * Not used at the moment but would be useful for file server optimization * Reduced memory consumption by a lot * All supported sanitizers can work simultaniously with any amount of memory (as long as bootloader can allocate enough memory for the kernel) The code is mostly located in kern/pmap.c A set of trees is used for holding metadata (nodes are of type struct Page): * A tree describing physical memory * One tree for every address space (for every environment and kernel) TODO * Replace user_mem_assert with exception-based code * copyin/copyout functions * Refactor address spcae and move all kernel-only memory regions to cannonical upper part of adress space (this requeres copyin/copyout functions because ASAN should never touch userspace memory)
