[PATCH 3/6] 8xx: get rid of _PAGE_HWWRITE dependency in MMU.

Joakim Tjernlund Joakim.Tjernlund at transmode.se
Mon Oct 5 23:16:36 EST 2009


Update the TLB asm to make proper use of _PAGE_DIRY and _PAGE_ACCESSED.
Pros:
 - I/D TLB Miss never needs to write to the linux pte.
 - _PAGE_ACCESSED is only set on I/D TLB Error fixing accounting
 - _PAGE_DIRTY is mapped to 0x100, the changed bit, and is set directly
    when a page has been made dirty.
 - Proper RO/RW mapping of user space.
 - Free up 2 SW TLB bits in the linux pte(add back _PAGE_WRITETHRU ?)
Cons:
 - 4 more instructions in I/D TLB Miss, but the since the linux pte is
   not written anymore, it should still be a win.
