* x86/pgtable: explain constant sign extension problemJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-01-301-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the _PAGE_FOO constants are defined as (1ul << _PAGE_BIT_FOO), they become unsigned longs. In 32-bit PAE mode, these end up being implicitly cast to 64-bit types when used to manipulate a pte, and because they're unsigned the top 32-bits are 0, destroying the upper bits of the pte. When _PAGE_FOO constants are given a signed integer type, the cast to 64-bits will sign-extend so that the upper bits are all ones, preserving the upper pte bits in manipulations. Explain this in a prominent place.

* x86: unify paravirt pagetable accessorsJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-01-301-14/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Put all the defines for mapping pagetable operations to their native versions (for the non-paravirt case) into one place. Make the corresponding changes to paravirt.h. The tricky part here is that when a pagetable entry can't be updated atomically (ie, 32-bit PAE), we need special handlers for pte_clear, set_pte_atomic and set_pte_present. However, the other two modes don't need special handling for these, and can use a common set_pte(_at) path.

* x86: unify pgtable accessors which useJeremy Fitzhardinge2008-01-301-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | Make users of supported_pte_mask common. This has the side-effect of introducing the variable for 32-bit non-PAE, but I think its a pretty small cost to simplify the code.
