[PATCH 4.9 113/120] powerpc/mm: Correct process and partition table max size

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

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Suraj Jitindar Singh <sjitindarsingh@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 555c16328ae6d75a90e234eac9b51998d68f185b upstream.

Version 3.00 of the ISA states that the PATS (partition table size) field
of the PTCR (partition table control register) and the PRTS (process table
size) field of the partition table entry must both be less than or equal
to 24. However the actual size of the partition and process tables is equal
to 2 to the power of 12 plus the PATS and PRTS fields, respectively. This
means that the max allowable size of each of these tables is 2^36 or 64GB
for both.

Thus when checking the size shift for each we should be checking for values
of greater than 36 instead of the current check for shifts larger than 24
and 23.
