1+ implement true memory management
2 + [ia32] use int 0x15 ax=0xe820 to get memory map and memory size
3 + [mips] use some heuristics to get memory map and memory size
4 + reimplement heap so that it can allocate/deallocate itself frames as necessary
5 + provide native four-level portable page table interface
6 + every architecture uses its native page table format
7 + kernel provides unified four-level page table interface for all architectures
