2009-08-20powerpc: Add TLB management code for 64-bit Book3EBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This adds the TLB miss handler assembly, the low level TLB flush routines along with the necessary hook for dealing with our virtual page tables or indirect TLB entries that need to be flushes when PTE pages are freed. There is currently no support for hugetlbfs Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-12-21powerpc/mm: Rework context management for CPUs with no hash tableBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This reworks the context management code used by 4xx,8xx and freescale BookE. It adds support for SMP by implementing a concept of stale context map to lazily flush the TLB on processors where a context may have been invalidated. This also contains the ground work for generalizing such lazy TLB flushing by just picking up a new PID and marking the old one stale. This will be implemented later. This is a first implementation that uses a global spinlock. Ideally, we should try to get at least the fast path (context ID already assigned) lockless or limited to a per context lock, but for now this will do. I tried to keep the UP case reasonably simple to avoid adding too much overhead to 8xx which does a lot of context stealing since it effectively has only 16 PIDs available.

2008-08-04powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asmStephen Rothwell
from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
