[PATCH 1/3] mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL

From: Laurent Dufour <hidden>
Date: 2018-04-09 13:57:39
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-doc, linux-mm, linux-riscv, linux-sh, lkml, sparclinux
Subsystem: arm port, arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), memory management, memory management - core, risc-v architecture, s390 architecture, sparc + ultrasparc (sparc/sparc64), superh, synopsys arc architecture, the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Russell King, Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Madhavan Srinivasan, Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Paul Walmsley, Palmer Dabbelt, Albert Ou, Heiko Carstens, Vasily Gorbik, Alexander Gordeev, "David S. Miller", Andreas Larsson, Yoshinori Sato, Rich Felker, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz, Vineet Gupta, Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture header
files. Most of the time, it is defined in arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h
depending or not on some other per architecture static definition.

This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this directly
in the Kconfig files. It would later replace __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL.

Here notes for some architecture where the definition of
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious:

arm
 __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE.

powerpc
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files:
 - arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h
 - arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h
The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is
included in all the other cases.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time.

sparc:
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) &&
defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in
sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64
