Hello Boris,

Had a relook into this. 

As I mentioned earlier, this is computing an index into a 4K page within a hugepage mapping,
therefore, though pte_index() works for 2M pages, but pmd_index() will not work for 1G pages.

We basically need to do :
pfn |= (address >> PAGE_SHIFT) & mask;

where mask is the (number of 4K pages per hugepage) - 1

So this still needs the original code but with a fix for mask computation as following : 

static inline size_t pages_per_hpage(int level)
        return page_level_size(level) / PAGE_SIZE;
 }
        
static int handle_user_rmp_page_fault(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned long error_code,
                                      unsigned long address)
 {      
       ... 
       pfn = pte_pfn(*pte);
        
        /* If its large page then calculte the fault pfn */
        if (level > PG_LEVEL_4K) {
+               /*
+                * index into the 4K page within the hugepage mapping
+                * in the RMP table
+                */
                unsigned long mask;
        
-               mask = pages_per_hpage(level) - pages_per_hpage(level - 1);
+              mask = pages_per_hpage(level) - 1;
                pfn |= (address >> PAGE_SHIFT) & mask;


Thanks,
Ashish
