[PATCH 4/5] powerpc: spufs support for 64K LS mappings on 4K kernels

Benjamin Herrenschmidt benh at kernel.crashing.org
Tue May 8 16:27:29 EST 2007


This patch adds an option to spufs when the kernel is configured for
4K page to give it the ability to use 64K pages for SPE local store
mappings.

Currently, we are optimistic and try order 4 allocations when creting
contexts. If that fails, the code will fallback to 4K automatically.
