2008-09-24	powerpc: Introduce local (non-broadcast) forms of tlb invalidates	Kumar Gala	1	-0/+7
	Introduced a new set of low level tlb invalidate functions that do not broadcast invalidates on the bus: _tlbil_all - invalidate all _tlbil_pid - invalidate based on process id (or mm context) _tlbil_va - invalidate based on virtual address (ea + pid) On non-SMP configs _tlbil_all should be functionally equivalent to _tlbia and _tlbil_va should be functionally equivalent to _tlbie. The intent of this change is to handle SMP based invalidates via IPIs instead of broadcasts as the mechanism scales better for larger number of cores. On e500 (fsl-booke mmu) based cores move to using MMUCSR for invalidate alls and tlbsx/tlbwe for invalidate virtual address. Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak@kernel.crashing.org>
2008-08-04	powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm	Stephen Rothwell	1	-0/+501
	from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
