It would be nice to be able to dump page tables in a particular context. Example use cases
Dumping PTE contents to see the keys (useful for debugging) 0:mon> dv 0x7ffff7f70000 c00000003b585080 PGD@0xc00000003ab651f8->0x000000003a255800 PUD@0xc00000003a255bf8->0x000000003aa84000 PMD@0xc00000003aa85fb8->0x000000003a823000 physical address->0x00000000012c0000, PTE->0xce800000012c0504 PTE flags A: :R: : For Hugepages, the output shows the PMD as PTE 0:mon> dv 0x7ffff6000000 c00000003b585080 PGD@0xc00000003ab651f8->0x000000003a255800 PUD@0xc00000003a255bf8->0x000000003aa84000 physical address->0x0000000032000000, PTE->0xdc80000032002386 PTE flags A:D:R:W: Dumping vmalloc space 0:mon> dv 0xd000000000000000 PGD@0xc0000000012b0000->0x00000000bc170400 PUD@0xc0000000bc170400->0x000000007e184000 PMD@0xc00000007e184000->0x00000000bc180000 physical address->0x000000003d2b0000, PTE->0xc08000003d2b018e PTE flags A:D:R:W: This patch does not replicate the complex code of dump_pagetable and has no support for bolted linear mapping, thats why I've it's called dump virtual page table support. The format of the PTE can be expanded even further to add more useful information about the flags in the PTE if required.
