First patch is a typo fix where book3e define _PAGE_LENDIAN while it
should be defined as _PAGE_ENDIAN. This seems to show that this is never exercised :-)
Second and third patch is to allow guest controlling "G"-Guarded and "E"-Endian TLB attributes respectively.
Fourth patch is moving functions/logic in common code so they can be used on booke also.
Fifth and Sixth patch is actually setting caching attributes (TLB.WIMGE) using corresponding Linux pte.
v3->v5
- Fix tlb-reference-flag clearing issue (patch 4/6)
- There was a patch (4/6 powerpc: move linux pte/hugepte search to more generic file)
in the last series of this patchset which was moving pte/hugepte search functions to
generic file. That patch is no more needed as some other patch is already applied to fix that :)
v2->v3
- now lookup_linux_pte() only have pte search logic and it does not
set any access flags in pte. There is already a function for setting
access flag which will be called explicitly where needed.
On booke we only need to search for pte to get WIMG.
v1->v2
- Earlier caching attributes (WIMGE) were set based of page is RAM or not
But now we get these attributes from corresponding Linux PTE.
Bharat Bhushan (6):
powerpc: book3e: _PAGE_LENDIAN must be _PAGE_ENDIAN
kvm: powerpc: allow guest control "E" attribute in mas2
kvm: powerpc: allow guest control "G" attribute in mas2
kvm: powerpc: keep only pte search logic in lookup_linux_pte
kvm: booke: clear host tlb reference flag on guest tlb invalidation
kvm: powerpc: use caching attributes as per linux pte
