* MIPS: Put PGD in C0_CONTEXT for 64-bit R2 processors.David Daney2009-12-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Processors that support the mips64r2 ISA can in four instructions convert a shifted PGD pointer stored in the upper bits of c0_context into a usable pointer. By doing this we save a memory load and associated potential cache miss in the TLB exception handlers. Since the upper bits of c0_context were holding the CPU number, we move this to the upper bits of c0_xcontext which doesn't have enough bits to hold the PGD pointer, but has plenty for the CPU number.

* MIPS: Avoid potential hazard on Context registerRalf Baechle2009-11-02

* MIPS: Don't write ones to reserved entryhi bits.Ralf Baechle2009-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We've silently been relying on the hardware chopping off excess, reserved ASID bits for no better reason that it saving an instruction. Because we already have: #define cpu_asid(cpu, mm) (cpu_context((cpu), (mm)) & ASID_MASK) in <asm/mmu_context.h>. We can use a cleanup to avoid writing non-zero bits into the reserved entryhi bits. This avoid triggering some debugging assertion in the Cavium simulator. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
* cpumask: use mm_cpumask() wrapper: mipsRusty Russell2009-09-23
| | | | | | | | | Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask. It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer (the older ones are deprecated, but there's no hurry for arch code). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* MIPS: Build fix - include <linux/smp.h> into all smp_processor_id() users.Ralf Baechle2009-06-24
| | | | | | | | | Some of the were relying into smp.h being dragged in by another header which of course is fragile. <asm/cpu-info.h> uses smp_processor_id() only in macros and including smp.h there leads to an include loop, so don't change cpu-info.h.
