Subject: [PATCH 12/16] powerpc: add ps3 platform lpar addressing
Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2006 19:43:57 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <455D2FFD.3060208@am.sony.com> (raw)

Adds some needed bits for a config option PS3PF_USE_LPAR_ADDR that disables
the ps3pf lpar address translation mechanism.  This is a currently needed
workaround for limitations in the design of the spu support.
