Subject: [PATCH 13/16] powerpc: add ps3 platform lpar addressing
Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2006 12:03:32 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4554DB14.3070900@am.sony.com> (raw)
Adds some needed bits for a config option PS3PF_USE_LPAR_ADDR that disables
the ps3pf lpar address translation mechanism. This is a currently needed
workaround for limitations in the design of the spu support.
