2015-04-14	ia64: expose number of page table levels on Kconfig level	Kirill A. Shutemov	1	-2/+2
	We would want to use number of page table level to define mm_struct. Let's expose it as CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS. We need to define PGTABLE_LEVELS before sourcing init/Kconfig: arch/Kconfig will define default value and it's sourced from init/Kconfig. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2009-07-27	mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb()	Benjamin Herrenschmidt	1	-3/+3
	mm: Pass virtual address to [__]p{te,ud,md}_free_tlb() Upcoming paches to support the new 64-bit "BookE" powerpc architecture will need to have the virtual address corresponding to PTE page when freeing it, due to the way the HW table walker works. Basically, the TLB can be loaded with "large" pages that cover the whole virtual space (well, sort-of, half of it actually) represented by a PTE page, and which contain an "indirect" bit indicating that this TLB entry RPN points to an array of PTEs from which the TLB can then create direct entries. Thus, in order to invalidate those when PTE pages are deleted, we need the virtual address to pass to tlbilx or tlbivax instructions. The old trick of sticking it somewhere in the PTE page struct page sucks too much, the address is almost readily available in all call sites and almost everybody implemets these as macros, so we may as well add the argument everywhere. I added it to the pmd and pud variants for consistency.

2008-08-01	[IA64] Move include/asm-ia64 to arch/ia64/include/asm	Tony Luck	1	-0/+122
	After moving the the include files there were a few clean-ups: 1) Some files used #include <asm-ia64/xyz.h>, changed to <asm/xyz.h> 2) Some comments alerted maintainers to look at various header files to make matching updates if certain code were to be changed. Updated these comments to use the new include paths. 3) Some header files mentioned their own names in initial comments. Just deleted these self references.
