2009-09-02powerpc/fsl-booke: Use HW PTE format if CONFIG_PTE_64BITKumar Gala
Switch to using the Power ISA defined PTE format when we have a 64-bit PTE. This makes the code handling between fsl-booke and book3e-64 similiar for TLB faults. Additionally this lets use take advantage of the page size encodings and full permissions that the HW PTE defines. Also defined _PMD_PRESENT, _PMD_PRESENT_MASK, and _PMD_BAD since the 32-bit ppc arch code expects them.

2009-08-27powerpc/mm: Cleanup handling of execute permissionBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of #ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that hopefully should cover everything. The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than it already was in that area due to that change. I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page execute permissions...

2009-03-20powerpc/mm: Unify PTE_RPN_SHIFT and _PAGE_CHG_MASK definitionsBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This updates the 32-bit headers to use the same definitions for the RPN shift inside the PTE as 64-bit, and thus updates _PAGE_CHG_MASK to become identical. This does introduce a runtime visible difference, which is that now, _PAGE_HASHPTE will be part of _PAGE_CHG_MASK and thus preserved. However this should have no practical effect as it should have been preserved in the first place and we got away with not having it there due to our PTE access functions preserving it anyway.

2009-03-20powerpc/mm: Split the various pgtable-* headers based on MMU typeBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch moves the definition of the PTE format for each MMU type to separate files instead of all in one file. This improves overall maintainability and will make it easier to add new types. On 64-bit, additionally, I've separated the headers relative to the format of the page table tree (3 vs. 4 levels for 64K vs 4K pages) from the headers specific to the PTE format for hash based processors, this will make it easier to add support for Book3 "E" 64-bit implementations. There are still some type-related ifdef's in the generic headers, we might remove them in the long run, but this patch shouldn't result in any code change, -hopefully- just definitions being moved around.
