Yeah, this is mentioned in arch/x86/include/asm/page_64_types.h:
/*
* Set __PAGE_OFFSET to the most negative possible address +
* PGDIR_SIZE*16 (pgd slot 272). The gap is to allow a space for a
* hypervisor to fit. Choosing 16 slots here is arbitrary, but it's
* what Xen requires.
*/
#define __PAGE_OFFSET _AC(0xffff880000000000, UL)
It is also in Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.txt:
ffff800000000000 - ffff87ffffffffff (=43 bits) guard hole, reserved for hypervisor
albeit a bit laconic.
Thanks.
