      [PATCH] Standardize pxx_page macros · 46a82b2d
      Dave McCracken authored
      
      
      One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
      pxx_page macros.  pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
      page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
      have returned the kernel virtual address.  pud_page and pgd_page, on the
      other hand, return the kernel virtual address.
      
      Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
      structures.  There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
      simple to standardize their usage.
      
      Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
      patch.  Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
      pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

      [ARM] nommu: adjust headers for !MMU ARM systems · 002547b4
      Russell King authored
      
      
      Majorily based on Hyok Choi's patches, this fixes up the asm-arm
      header files for mmuless systems.  Over and above Hyok's patches:
      
      - nommu.h merged into mmu.h (it's only a structure)
      - nommu_context.h is essentially the same as mmu_context.h, but
        without the MM switching code.
      
      so there's no point having separate files.  Also, in memory.h,
      there's no point #ifndef'ing PHYS_OFFSET and END_MEM - both
      CONFIG_DRAM_BASE and CONFIG_DRAM_SIZE will always be set by the
      configuration scripts.
      
      Other files have minor formatting changes, but are essentially
      the same.  Hyok's original patches were signed off thusly:

      [ARM] 3439/2: xsc3: add I/O coherency support · 23759dc6
      Lennert Buytenhek authored
      
      
      Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
      
      This patch adds support for the I/O coherent cache available on the
      xsc3.  The approach is to provide a simple API to determine whether the
      chipset supports coherency by calling arch_is_coherent() and then
      setting the appropriate system memory PTE and PMD bits.  In addition,
      we call this API on dma_alloc_coherent() and dma_map_single() calls.
      A generic version exists that will compile out all the coherency-related
      code that is not needed on the majority of ARM systems.
      
      Note that we do not check for coherency in the dma_alloc_writecombine()
      function as that still requires a special PTE setting.  We also don't
      touch dma_mmap_coherent() as that is a special ARM-only API that is by
      definition only used on non-coherent system.

      [PATCH] vm: remove unused/broken page_pte[_prot] macros · 1426d7a8
      Tejun Heo authored
      
      
      This patch removes page_pte_prot and page_pte macros from all
      architectures.  Some architectures define both, some only page_pte (broken)
      and others none.  These macros are not used anywhere.
      
      page_pte_prot(page, prot) is identical to mk_pte(page, prot) and
      page_pte(page) is identical to page_pte_prot(page, __pgprot(0)).
      
      * The following architectures define both page_pte_prot and page_pte
      
        arm, arm26, ia64, sh64, sparc, sparc64
      
      * The following architectures define only page_pte (broken)
      
        frv, i386, m32r, mips, sh, x86-64
      
      * All other architectures define neither

      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!
