[PPC64] Dynamically allocate segment tables

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



PPC64 machines before Power4 need a segment table page allocated for
each CPU.  Currently these are allocated statically in a big array in
head.S for all CPUs.  The segment tables need to be in the first
segment (so do_stab_bolted doesn't take a recursive fault on the stab
itself), but other than that there are no constraints which require
the stabs for the secondary CPUs to be statically allocated.

This patch allocates segment tables dynamically during boot, using
lmb_alloc() to ensure they are within the first 256M segment.  This
reduces the kernel image size by 192k...

Tested on RS64 iSeries, POWER3 pSeries, and POWER5.
