In an effort to understand how the page tables are laid out across various architectures I put together some diagrams. I have posted them on the linux-mm wiki: http://linux-mm.org/PageTableStructure and I hope they will be useful to others. Just to make sure I am not spreading misinformation, could a few of you experts take a quick look at the three diagrams I've got finished so far and point out any errors I have made?
