2008-11-27[ARM] clearpage: provide our own clear_user_highpage()Russell King
For similar reasons as copy_user_page(), we want to avoid the additional kmap_atomic if it's unnecessary. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-11-27[ARM] copypage: provide our own copy_user_highpage()Russell King
We used to override the copy_user_page() function. However, this is not only inefficient, it also causes additional complexity for highmem support, since we convert from a struct page to a kernel direct mapped address and back to a struct page again. Moreover, with highmem support, we end up pointlessly setting up kmap entries for pages which we're going to remap. So, push the kmapping down into the copypage implementation files where it's required. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2008-09-01[ARM] cachetype: move definitions to separate headerRussell King
Rather than pollute asm/cacheflush.h with the cache type definitions, move them to asm/cachetype.h, and include this new header where necessary. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2006-12-30[ARM] 4078/1: Fix ARM copypage cache coherency problemsRichard Purdie
If PG_dcache_dirty is set for a page, we need to flush the source page before performing any copypage operation using a different virtual address. This fixes the copypage implementations for XScale, StrongARM and ARMv6. This patch fixes segmentation faults seen in the dynamic linker under the usage patterns in glibc 2.4/2.5.

2006-12-13[ARM] Unuse another Linux PTE bitRussell King
L_PTE_ASID is not really required to be stored in every PTE, since we can identify it via the address passed to set_pte_at(). So, create set_pte_ext() which takes the address of the PTE to set, the Linux PTE value, and the additional CPU PTE bits which aren't encoded in the Linux PTE value.

2006-09-20[ARM] Cleanup arch/arm/mm a littleRussell King
Move top_pmd into arch/arm/mm/mm.h - nothing outside arch/arm/mm references it. Move the repeated definition of TOP_PTE into mm/mm.h, as well as a few function prototypes. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-10-30[ARM] Make v6 copypage function static and cleanup pgprotsRussell King
We know what pgprot we're going to use, so don't #define it. Also, since we select the nonaliasing/aliasing copypage implementation at run time, there's no point having it globally visible. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

2005-05-10[PATCH] ARM: Use top_pmd for V6 copy/clear user_pageRussell King
Remove needless page table walking for v6 page operations. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
