Different processes have different different page tables for their address spaces.



Does the Linux kernel have its own page table? If not, how are the virtual addresses of kernel translated to physical memory addresses?



In the sense that the address space of each process is divided into user space and kernel space, does the page table of each process contain the "page table" of the kernel?



Thanks.



Related Do page fault, page replacement, and paging happen to the kernel or just to processes, and to the kernel space or the user space?
