mainlining shenanigans
0eb0d2e77d
By default, the 8xx pins an ITLB on the first 8M of memory in order to avoid any ITLB miss on kernel code. However, with some debug functions like DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and DEBUG_RODATA, pinning TLBs is contradictory. In order to avoid any ITLB miss in a critical section without pinning TLBs, we have to ensure that there is no page boundary crossed between the setup of a new value in SRR0/SRR1 and the associated RFI. The functions modifying srr0/srr1 are all located in setup_32.S. They are spread over almost 4kbytes. The patch forces a 12 bits (4kbytes) alignment for those functions. This garanties that the functions remain in a single 4k page. Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
