Main changes are based on: - Using processor handling of PGD/PTE Validity bits instead of testing ourselves the entries validity - Aligning PGD address to allow direct bit manipulation - Not saving registers like CR when not needed It also adds support to any TASK_SIZE Patchset: 01 - powerpc/8xx: remove remaining unnecessary code in FixupDAR 02 - powerpc/8xx: remove tests on PGDIR entry validity 03 - powerpc32: Use kmem_cache memory for PGDIR 04 - powerpc/8xx: Take benefit of aligned PGDIR 05 - powerpc/8xx: Optimise access to swapper_pg_dir 06 - powerpc/8xx: Remove duplicated code in set_context() 07 - powerpc/8xx: macro for handling CPU15 errata 08 - powerpc/8xx: Handle CR out of exception PROLOG/EPILOG 09 - powerpc/8xx: dont save CR in SCRATCH registers 10 - powerpc/8xx: Use SPRG2 instead of DAR for saving r3 11 - powerpc/8xx: Add support for TASK_SIZE greater than 0x80000000 All changes have been successfully tested on MPC885 Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy Tested-by: Christophe Leroy --- arch/powerpc/include/asm/page.h | 8 +++---- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable-ppc32.h | 37 +++++++++++++++++++++----------- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pgtable.h | 17 ++++++++------- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-8xx.h | 1 + arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h | 3 +++ arch/powerpc/kernel/head_8xx.S | 3 --- arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c | 14 ++++++++++++ 7 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-)
