This might not seem useful or anything, but this is a part of an experiment
so I will describe what I'm trying to do:

Divide the memory into two equal halves and call them A and B.
Let's say region A has 10 pages, from page numbers 1 to 10. Region B has 10
pages from page numbers 11 to 20 (hypothetical, of course.)
When a page from region B (page number 11 to 20) is being accessed, say
page 15, then swap the contents of page 15 with the contents of one of the
pages from region A, say page 5.
To achieve this, I need some help. In the default scenario, page 15 points
to frame X and page 5 points to frame Y. I want to make page 15 point to
frame Y and page 5 to frame X of the memory.

I want to run this experiment and find the degradation in performance for a
project.
If some portion of this seems vague, I can explain. But I urgently need
help on how to achieve this.

My understanding is that it can be done in the page fault handler of shadow
page tables. I have mentioned the relevant file and function earlier in
this thread.

Thanks a lot!
