==FAQ==
Q: Why is it causing triple fault/page fault?
A: You kernel is probably not inside the first 2 MIB of the memory. You'll need to identity map your kernel.
Q: How do I map pages?
A: Firstly, align your desired virtual memory address to 1 GIB, and divide it by 1 GIB to obtain the PDPT index. Then, find the index of the page directory by aligning your desired virtual address to 2 MIB and divide it by 2 MIB. Finally, lookup the page directory entry by the index obtained in the previous step, and set the entry's address to your desired physical address that's aligned to 2 MIB.
