The host at EL1 and the pKVM hypervisor at EL2 will soon need to exchange memory pages dynamically for creating and destroying VM state. Indeed, the hypervisor will rely on the host to donate memory pages it can use to create guest stage-2 page-tables and to store VM and vCPU metadata. In order to ease this process, introduce a 'struct hyp_memcache' which is essentially a linked list of available pages, indexed by physical addresses so that it can be passed meaningfully between the different virtual address spaces configured at EL1 and EL2.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
