From 2d1b2027626d5151fff8ef7c06ca8e7876a1a510 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kumar Gala Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2008 01:16:40 +1000 Subject: powerpc: Fixup lwsync at runtime To allow for a single kernel image on e500 v1/v2/mc we need to fixup lwsync at runtime. On e500v1/v2 lwsync causes an illop so we need to patch up the code. We default to 'sync' since that is always safe and if the cpu is capable we will replace 'sync' with 'lwsync'. We introduce CPU_FTR_LWSYNC as a way to determine at runtime if this is needed. This flag could be moved elsewhere since we dont really use it for the normal CPU_FTR purpose. Finally we only store the relative offset in the fixup section to keep it as small as possible rather than using a full fixup_entry.
