Note that this has been compiled on some systems, cats, IQ80310, IPAQ, netwinder and shark (note that shark's build is currently broken due to other reasons), but only actually run on cats.
Shark doesn't make use of the functionality as I believe there has to be a correlation between OFW and the kernel tables so that calls into OFW work.
<arm/arm32/vmparam.h> (mostly the stuff that's tied to the pmap
implementation).
- Since the MMU definitions in pte.h are specific to ARM processors
that support 32-bit mode, move pte.h to <arm/arm32/pte.h>.
- Make the Netwinder startup file build again (use PT_B|PT_C, rather
than PT_CACHEABLE, since the latter expands to a variable these days).
Improved locking (not that we actually use it on a uniprocessor, but one day :)
Removed unneeded splvm's
tweaked pmap_clean_page code to only flush the cache if the page is mapped in the current pmap (based on diff from richard E)
Adopted pv entry allocation mechanism from i386.
Laid framework for returning ptp's when we've finished with them rather than holding onto them till the process exits.
ptp's are now allocated with a uvm object for the pmap, means that we can walk a list to free them off in pmap_release, until they get freed off by pmap_remove.
Also implemented a page zeroing function when the processor is idling. Note that hpcarm may wish to disable this.
I believe this code to be stable, if anyone has any problems please shout up.
each vm_page structure. Add a VM_MDPAGE_INIT() macro to init this
data when pages are initialized by UVM. These macros are mandatory,
but ports may #define them to nothing if they are not needed/used.
This deprecates struct pmap_physseg. As a transitional measure,
allow a port to #define PMAP_PHYSSEG so that it can continue to
use it until its pmap is converted to use VM_MDPAGE_MEMBERS.
Use all this stuff to eliminate a lot of extra work in the Alpha
pmap module (it's smaller and faster now). Changes to other pmap
modules will follow.
