The specification states that for page data structures with file offset zero are measured with hardware zero pages if possible:
If the file offset is zero, then a page of zeroes is to be loaded. If the page contents are to be measured, and the underlying platform supports measured zero pages as a native page type, then the loader must request this page type; otherwise, the loader must generate a page of zeroes to load as the page contents.
However, this is incorrect. These pages should be treated as normal private pages with contents of zero. A future page type will be required for specifying hardware zero pages, on platforms that support it.
