[PATCH v2] KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Enable MSR_DR for switch_mmu_context()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Commit 863771a28e27 ("powerpc/32s: Convert switch_mmu_context() to C")
moved the switch_mmu_context() to C. While in principle a good idea, it
meant that the function now uses the stack. The stack is not accessible
from real mode though.

So to keep calling the function, let's turn on MSR_DR while we call it.
That way, all pointer references to the stack are handled virtually.

In addition, make sure to save/restore r12 in an SPRG, as it may get
clobbered by the C function.

v1 -> v2:

  - Save and restore R12, so that we don't touch volatile registers
    while calling into C.
