__PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT is used to define the mask that helps to extract physical address from a page table entry. Although real physical address space available may differ between machines, it's safe to use 52 as __PHYSICAL_MASK_SHIFT. Unused bits above log2(MAXPHYADDR) up to bit 51 are reserved and must be 0.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
