30//           Generic Page Table Definition (implementation in hal_gpt.c)
31//
32// It is specified as a simple (one dimensional) array indexed by the VPN (vpn_t type),
33// even if implementations can use a more sophisticated organisation (two-levels or more).
34// - The number of entries (number of pages in a virtual space) is architecture
35//   dependent, and is defined as (CONFIG_USER_SPACE_SIZE / CONFIG_PPM_PAGE_SIZE).
36// - Each entry contains a Physical Page Number (ppn_t type), and a set of attributes,
37//   defined as masks on a 32 bits-vector.
38//
39// Any arch-specific implementation must implement this API.
