Ok. How about the below patch. This is based on the suggestion from Paulus. I still have to take care of few comments in the code. We now split the proto-vsid range differently. User: 0 to [2^(CONTEXT_BITS) - 4 + 2^(USER_ESID_BITS)] kernel: [2^(CONTEXT_BITS) - 4 + 2^(USER_ESID_BITS)] to 2^(VSID_BITS) - 1 Phileas and Geoff, Can we check whether this fix the PS3 boot hang ?
Tested the new patch with Linux 3.8.0-rc7, it seems to be working well. regards
