After this we check the vector number, and if it is `#PF` or [Page Fault](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_fault), we put value from the `cr2` to the `rdi` register and call `early_make_pgtable` (we'll see it soon): ```assembly - cmpq $14,%rsi + cmpq $14,%rsi /* Page fault? */ jnz 10f GET_CR2_INTO(%rdi) call early_make_pgtable - andl %eax,%eax - jz 20f + andl %eax,%eax /* It is more efficient, the opcode is shorter than movl 1, %eax, only 2 bytes. */ + jz 20f /* All good */ ``` otherwise we call `early_fixup_exception` function by passing kernel stack pointer:
