Did you mean
+ /* r10=(r10&~_PAGE_PRESENT)|((r10&_PAGE_ACCESSED)>>4) */
+ rlwimi. r10, r10, 28, 30, 31
+ beq- cr0, 2f /* Can be removed, costs a ITLB Err */
Which would still be incorrect. You want -both- to be set,
and your code will move on if -any- is set. Might want to add
a ~ of the whole thing maybe and invert the condition ?
I find it easier to just do li rX, requested_bits, and then, andc.
rscratch, rX, rPTE

I don't get that one. Don't bother with _PAGE_EXEC, there's no
control of execute permission that works on 8xx. It's #if 0 anyway.
You still need to massage the PP bits into place. I don't see that
happening.
As it is, your PTE contains for bit 20 and 21, which translates to:
PTE: Translates to PP bits:
RW: 0 USER: 0 00 supervisor RW (ok)
RW: 0 USER: 1 01 supervisor RW user RO (WRONG)
RW: 1 USER: 0 10 supervisor RW user RW (WRONG)
RW: 1 USER: 1 11 supervisor RO user RO (WRONG)
I would suggest you do the stuff I suggested initially with RW and USER
being an "index" into a pre-cooked immediate value with all the encodings
which also gives you the extended encoding for supervisor RO for free.

That doesn't sound right, just like ITLB... you need to AND those two
bits in a way or another, or basically test that they are both set
(or neither is set)

Well, you are missing that xori from the ITLB miss I think. Also, that
changes the table above to:
PTE: Translates to PP bits:
RW: 0 USER: 0 10 supervisor RW user RW (WRONG)
RW: 0 USER: 1 11 supervisor RO user RO (ok)
RW: 1 USER: 0 00 supervisor RW (ok)
RW: 1 USER: 1 01 supervisor RW user RO (WRONG)
So it's still not right :-)
Cheers,
Ben.
