So tasks have memory context in the form of a `struct mm_struct` and this in turn has a - `struct pgt_t *pgd` pointer to the corresponding page global directory. + `struct pgd_t *pgd` pointer to the corresponding page global directory. To repeat: each level in the page table hierarchy is a *array of pointers*, so the **pgd** contains `PTRS_PER_PGD` pointers to the next level below, **p4d** -- 2.43.0
