在下面几种情况下会发生，页面出错异常（也叫缺页中断）：
1、相应的页面目录项或者页面表项为空，也就是该线性地址与物理地址的映射关系尚未建立，或者已经撤销。本文讨论的就是这种情况。
2、相应的物理页面不在内存中。
3、指令中规定的访问方式与页面的权限不符，例如企图写一个“只读”的页面。
首先看下进程地址空间示意图：
假设现在需要调用某个子程序，因此CPU需将返回地址压入堆栈，也就是要将返回地址写入虚拟空间地址为(%esp-4)的地方。可是，在我们这个情景中地址(%esp-4)落入了空洞中，这是尚未映射的地址，因此必然要引起一次页面出错异常。
这里假定CPU的运行已经到达了页面异常服务程序的主体do_page_fault()的入口处。代码如下：
arch/i386/mm/fault.c
asmlinkage void do_page_fault(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long error_code)
{
struct task_struct *tsk;
struct mm_struct *mm;
struct vm_area_struct * vma;
unsigned long address;
unsigned long page;
unsigned long fixup;
int write;
siginfo_t info;
/* get the address */
__asm__("movl %%cr2,%0":"=r" (address));//把映射的失败的地址保存在address中，也就是%esp-4
tsk = current;//task_struct
/*
* We fault-in kernel-space virtual memory on-demand. The
* ‘reference‘ page table is init_mm.pgd.
*
* NOTE! We MUST NOT take any locks for this case. We may
* be in an interrupt or a critical region, and should
* only copy the information from the master page table,
* nothing more.
*/
if (address >= TASK_SIZE)
goto vmalloc_fault;
mm = tsk->mm;//mm_struct
info.si_code = SEGV_MAPERR;
/*
* If we‘re in an interrupt or have no user
* context, we must not take the fault..
*/
if (in_interrupt() || !mm)
goto no_context;
down(&mm->mmap_sem);
vma = find_vma(mm, address);//找出结束地址大于给定地址的第一个区间。
if (!vma)//没有找到，说明没有一个区间的结束地址高于给定的地址，参考上图，说明这个地址是在堆栈之下，也就是3G字节以上了。
goto bad_area;
if (vma->vm_start <= address)//起始地址不高于address，说明映射已经建立，转到good_area去进一步检查失败原因。
goto good_area;
if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_GROWSDOWN))//起始地址大于address，说明落到了空洞里面；如果vm_flags为VM_GROWSDOWN，说明落在堆栈区中，不会goto bad_area。
goto bad_area;
if (error_code & 4) {//发生在用户态
/*
* accessing the stack below %esp is always a bug.
* The "+ 32" is there due to some instructions (like
* pusha) doing post-decrement on the stack and that
* doesn‘t show up until later..
*/
if (address + 32 < regs->esp)//确保这是压栈操作，一次压入堆栈是4个字节，最多是pusha，压入32个字节。
goto bad_area;
}
if (expand_stack(vma, address))//看下面代码注释
goto bad_area;
/*
* Ok, we have a good vm_area for this memory access, so
* we can handle it..
*/
good_area:
info.si_code = SEGV_ACCERR;
write = 0;
switch (error_code & 3) {// 110 & 011 = 2
default: /* 3: write, present */
#ifdef TEST_VERIFY_AREA
if (regs->cs == KERNEL_CS)
printk("WP fault at %08lx\n", regs->eip);
#endif
/* fall through */
case 2: /* write, not present */
if (!(vma->vm_flags & VM_WRITE))
goto bad_area;
write++;//执行到这里
break;
case 1: /* read, present */
goto bad_area;
case 0: /* read, not present */
if (!(vma->vm_flags & (VM_READ | VM_EXEC)))
goto bad_area;
}
/*
* If for any reason at all we couldn‘t handle the fault,
* make sure we exit gracefully rather than endlessly redo
* the fault.
*/
switch (handle_mm_fault(mm, vma, address, write)) {
case 1:
tsk->min_flt++;
break;
case 2:
tsk->maj_flt++;
break;
case 0:
goto do_sigbus;
default:
goto out_of_memory;
}
/*
* Did it hit the DOS screen memory VA from vm86 mode?
*/
if (regs->eflags & VM_MASK) {
unsigned long bit = (address - 0xA0000) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
if (bit < 32)
tsk->thread.screen_bitmap |= 1 << bit;
}
up(&mm->mmap_sem);
return;
.......
} error_code:
bit 0 == 0 means no page found, 1 means protection fault
bit 1 == 0 means read, 1 means write
bit 2 == 0 means kernel, 1 means user-mode
此时，error_code为110，用户态，尚未映射，写。
expand_stack函数，代码如下：
static inline int expand_stack(struct vm_area_struct * vma, unsigned long address)
{
unsigned long grow;
address &= PAGE_MASK;//地址按页面边界对齐
grow = (vma->vm_start - address) >> PAGE_SHIFT;//本例中grow为1个页面
if (vma->vm_end - address > current->rlim[RLIMIT_STACK].rlim_cur ||
((vma->vm_mm->total_vm + grow) << PAGE_SHIFT) > current->rlim[RLIMIT_AS].rlim_cur)
return -ENOMEM;
vma->vm_start = address;//起始地址向低地址移了一个页面的距离
vma->vm_pgoff -= grow;
vma->vm_mm->total_vm += grow;
if (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED)
vma->vm_mm->locked_vm += grow;
return 0;
}int handle_mm_fault(struct mm_struct *mm, struct vm_area_struct * vma,
unsigned long address, int write_access)
{
int ret = -1;
pgd_t *pgd;
pmd_t *pmd;
pgd = pgd_offset(mm, address);//返回页面表项指针
pmd = pmd_alloc(pgd, address);//中转了一下，还是页目录表项指针
if (pmd) {
pte_t * pte = pte_alloc(pmd, address);//返回指向页表项的指针
if (pte)
ret = handle_pte_fault(mm, vma, address, write_access, pte);
}
return ret;
}pgd_offset函数，如下：
#define pgd_offset(mm, address) ((mm)->pgd+pgd_index(address))
extern inline pmd_t * pmd_alloc(pgd_t *pgd, unsigned long address)
{

BUG();
return (pmd_t *) pgd;
}extern inline pte_t * pte_alloc(pmd_t * pmd, unsigned long address)
{
address = (address >> PAGE_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PTE - 1);//在页表中的偏移
if (pmd_none(*pmd))//是否存在该页目录项
goto getnew;//如果没有就去创建
if (pmd_bad(*pmd))
goto fix;
return (pte_t *)pmd_page(*pmd) + address;//有就返回指向页表项的指针
getnew:
{
unsigned long page = (unsigned long) get_pte_fast();//创建页表
if (!page)
return get_pte_slow(pmd, address);
set_pmd(pmd, __pmd(_PAGE_TABLE + __pa(page)));//让页目录项指向页表
return (pte_t *)page + address;//返回指向页表项的指针
}
