+PAT (Page Attribute Table)
+==========================
+
+x86 Page Attribute Table (PAT) allows for setting the memory attribute at the
+page level granularity. PAT is complementary to the MTRR settings which allows
+for setting of memory types over physical address ranges. However, PAT is
+more flexible than MTRR due to its capability to set attributes at page level
+and also due to the fact that there are no hardware limitations on number of
+such attribute settings allowed. Added flexibility comes with guidelines for
+not having memory type aliasing for the same physical memory with multiple
+virtual addresses.
+
+PAT allows for different types of memory attributes. The most commonly used
+ones that will be supported at this time are Write-back, Uncached,
+Write-combined, Write-through and Uncached Minus.
+
+
+PAT APIs
+========
+
+There are many different APIs in the kernel that allows setting of memory
+attributes at the page level. In order to avoid aliasing, these interfaces
+should be used thoughtfully. Below is a table of interfaces available,
+their intended usage and their memory attribute relationships. Internally,
+these APIs use a reserve_memtype()/free_memtype() interface on the physical
+address range to avoid any aliasing.

+Advanced APIs for drivers
+=========================
+
+A. Exporting pages to users with remap_pfn_range, io_remap_pfn_range,
+vmf_insert_pfn.
+
+Drivers wanting to export some pages to userspace do it by using mmap
+interface and a combination of:
+
+  1) pgprot_noncached()
+  2) io_remap_pfn_range() or remap_pfn_range() or vmf_insert_pfn()
+
+With PAT support, a new API pgprot_writecombine is being added. So, drivers can
+continue to use the above sequence, with either pgprot_noncached() or
+pgprot_writecombine() in step 1, followed by step 2.
+
+In addition, step 2 internally tracks the region as UC or WC in memtype
+list in order to ensure no conflicting mapping.
+
+Note that this set of APIs only works with IO (non RAM) regions. If driver
+wants to export a RAM region, it has to do set_memory_uc() or set_memory_wc()
+as step 0 above and also track the usage of those pages and use set_memory_wb()
+before the page is freed to free pool.
+
+MTRR effects on PAT / non-PAT systems
+=====================================
+
+The following table provides the effects of using write-combining MTRRs when
+using ioremap*() calls on x86 for both non-PAT and PAT systems. Ideally
+mtrr_add() usage will be phased out in favor of arch_phys_wc_add() which will
+be a no-op on PAT enabled systems. The region over which a arch_phys_wc_add()
+is made, should already have been ioremapped with WC attributes or PAT entries,
+this can be done by using ioremap_wc() / set_memory_wc().  Devices which
+combine areas of IO memory desired to remain uncacheable with areas where
+write-combining is desirable should consider use of ioremap_uc() followed by
+set_memory_wc() to white-list effective write-combined areas.  Such use is
+nevertheless discouraged as the effective memory type is considered
+implementation defined, yet this strategy can be used as last resort on devices
+with size-constrained regions where otherwise MTRR write-combining would
+otherwise not be effective.

+
+.. note:: -- in the above table mean "Not suggested usage for the API". Some
+  of the --'s are strictly enforced by the kernel. Some others are not really
+  enforced today, but may be enforced in future.
+
+For ioremap and pci access through /sys or /proc - The actual type returned
+can be more restrictive, in case of any existing aliasing for that address.
+For example: If there is an existing uncached mapping, a new ioremap_wc can
+return uncached mapping in place of write-combine requested.
+
+set_memory_[uc|wc|wt] and set_memory_wb should be used in pairs, where driver
+will first make a region uc, wc or wt and switch it back to wb after use.
+
+Over time writes to /proc/mtrr will be deprecated in favor of using PAT based
+interfaces. Users writing to /proc/mtrr are suggested to use above interfaces.
+
+Drivers should use ioremap_[uc|wc] to access PCI BARs with [uc|wc] access
+types.
+
+Drivers should use set_memory_[uc|wc|wt] to set access type for RAM ranges.
+
+
+PAT debugging
+=============
+
+With CONFIG_DEBUG_FS enabled, PAT memtype list can be examined by::
+
+  # mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug
+  # cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/pat_memtype_list
+  PAT memtype list:
+  uncached-minus @ 0x7fadf000-0x7fae0000
+  uncached-minus @ 0x7fb19000-0x7fb1a000
+  uncached-minus @ 0x7fb1a000-0x7fb1b000

+  uncached-minus @ 0x7fb31000-0x7fb32000
+  uncached-minus @ 0x80000000-0x90000000
+
+This list shows physical address ranges and various PAT settings used to
+access those physical address ranges.
+
+Another, more verbose way of getting PAT related debug messages is with
+"debugpat" boot parameter. With this parameter, various debug messages are
+printed to dmesg log.
+
+PAT Initialization
+==================
+
+The following table describes how PAT is initialized under various
+configurations. The PAT MSR must be updated by Linux in order to support WC
+and WT attributes. Otherwise, the PAT MSR has the value programmed in it
+by the firmware. Note, Xen enables WC attribute in the PAT MSR for guests.

-Advanced APIs for drivers
--------------------------
-A. Exporting pages to users with remap_pfn_range, io_remap_pfn_range,
-vmf_insert_pfn
-
-Drivers wanting to export some pages to userspace do it by using mmap
-interface and a combination of
-1) pgprot_noncached()
-2) io_remap_pfn_range() or remap_pfn_range() or vmf_insert_pfn()
-
-With PAT support, a new API pgprot_writecombine is being added. So, drivers can
-continue to use the above sequence, with either pgprot_noncached() or
-pgprot_writecombine() in step 1, followed by step 2.
-
-In addition, step 2 internally tracks the region as UC or WC in memtype
-list in order to ensure no conflicting mapping.
-
-Note that this set of APIs only works with IO (non RAM) regions. If driver
-wants to export a RAM region, it has to do set_memory_uc() or set_memory_wc()
-as step 0 above and also track the usage of those pages and use set_memory_wb()
-before the page is freed to free pool.
-
-MTRR effects on PAT / non-PAT systems
--------------------------------------
-
-The following table provides the effects of using write-combining MTRRs when
-using ioremap*() calls on x86 for both non-PAT and PAT systems. Ideally
-mtrr_add() usage will be phased out in favor of arch_phys_wc_add() which will
-be a no-op on PAT enabled systems. The region over which a arch_phys_wc_add()
-is made, should already have been ioremapped with WC attributes or PAT entries,
-this can be done by using ioremap_wc() / set_memory_wc().  Devices which
-combine areas of IO memory desired to remain uncacheable with areas where
-write-combining is desirable should consider use of ioremap_uc() followed by
-set_memory_wc() to white-list effective write-combined areas.  Such use is
-nevertheless discouraged as the effective memory type is considered
-implementation defined, yet this strategy can be used as last resort on devices
-with size-constrained regions where otherwise MTRR write-combining would
-otherwise not be effective.

-Notes:
-
--- in the above table mean "Not suggested usage for the API". Some of the --'s
-are strictly enforced by the kernel. Some others are not really enforced
-today, but may be enforced in future.
-
-For ioremap and pci access through /sys or /proc - The actual type returned
-can be more restrictive, in case of any existing aliasing for that address.
-For example: If there is an existing uncached mapping, a new ioremap_wc can
-return uncached mapping in place of write-combine requested.
-
-set_memory_[uc|wc|wt] and set_memory_wb should be used in pairs, where driver
-will first make a region uc, wc or wt and switch it back to wb after use.
-
-Over time writes to /proc/mtrr will be deprecated in favor of using PAT based
-interfaces. Users writing to /proc/mtrr are suggested to use above interfaces.
-
-Drivers should use ioremap_[uc|wc] to access PCI BARs with [uc|wc] access
-types.
-
-Drivers should use set_memory_[uc|wc|wt] to set access type for RAM ranges.

-PAT debugging
--------------
-
-With CONFIG_DEBUG_FS enabled, PAT memtype list can be examined by
-
-# mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug
-# cat /sys/kernel/debug/x86/pat_memtype_list
-PAT memtype list:
-uncached-minus @ 0x7fadf000-0x7fae0000
-uncached-minus @ 0x7fb19000-0x7fb1a000
-uncached-minus @ 0x7fb1a000-0x7fb1b000

-uncached-minus @ 0x80000000-0x90000000
-
-This list shows physical address ranges and various PAT settings used to
-access those physical address ranges.
-
-Another, more verbose way of getting PAT related debug messages is with
-"debugpat" boot parameter. With this parameter, various debug messages are
-printed to dmesg log.

-PAT Initialization
-------------------
-
-The following table describes how PAT is initialized under various
-configurations. The PAT MSR must be updated by Linux in order to support WC
-and WT attributes. Otherwise, the PAT MSR has the value programmed in it
-by the firmware. Note, Xen enables WC attribute in the PAT MSR for guests.
