Hi,
This is version 8 of the set of patches adding support for the Large
Physical Address Extensions on the ARM architecture (available with the
Cortex-A15 and Cortex-A7 processors).
This patch set against latest mainline is available on this branch:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux.git for-next
The full set of patches against Linux 3.1 (together with other ARM
architecture developments) is available on this tree (rebased to latest
mainline regularly):
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux-arm-arch.git
The patch set also includes Russell's nopud patch with an additional
fix-up to be reviewed (they are not in mainline yet but LPAE depends on
them).
My plan is to submit these patches for upstreaming during the upcoming
merging window (for 3.3-rc1). Please let me know of any comments you may
have.
Changelog (from v7):
- Several patches already merged upstream.
- #ifdef's ARM_LPAE removed in pgable.h by moving page walking macros to
separate 2level.h and 3level.h files (pgalloc.h still has two #ifdef's
as it's not worth creating separate files for a few lines).
- pmd_addr_end() re-introduced for the 2-level page tables as we use
pgtable-nopud.h which has a more complex macro that is not eliminated
by the compiler (following Russell's feedback).
- alignment and debug fault codes moved to system.h near the
hook_fault_code() function prototype.
- FSR bits and fsr_fs() moved to header file.
- exceptions_init() #ifdef'ed out entirely.
- fsr_info and ifsr_info arrays moved to separate files for 2-level and
3-level page table formats.
- Kconfig ARM_LPAE help improved.
- proc-v7.S code that differs with LPAE has been factored out into
proc-2level.S and proc-3level.S files to avoid lots of #ifdef's but
also share the common code. Functions implemented differently are
cpu_v7_switch_mm, cpu_v7_set_pte_ext and TTB setting via a new asm
macro.
- suspend/resume code in proc-v7.S has been modified to preserve TTBCR
which is non-zero with LPAE.
- Fix to ignore RAM banks beyond 4G when HIGHMEM is not enabled.
