From 2f6093c84730b4bad65bcd0f2f904a5769b1dfc5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Neuling Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2006 16:19:19 +1000 Subject: [POWERPC] Implement SLB shadow buffer This adds a shadow buffer for the SLBs and regsiters it with PHYP. Only the bolted SLB entries (top 3) are shadowed. The SLB shadow buffer tells the hypervisor what the kernel needs to have in the SLB for the kernel to be able to function. The hypervisor can use this information to speed up partition context switches.
