[RFCv2,4/8] mm: vcm: VCM VMM driver added

From: KyongHo Cho
Date: Thu Dec 16 2010 - 23:17:01 EST


From: Michal Nazarewicz <m.nazarewicz@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This commit adds a VCM VMM driver that handles kernl virtual
address space mappings. The VCM context is available as a static
object vcm_vmm. It is mostly just a wrapper around vmap()
function.

The following VCM drivers are provided:

+** Virtual Memory Manager driver
+
+Virtual Memory Manager driver is available as vcm_vmm and lets one map
+VCM managed physical memory into kernel space. The calls that this
+driver supports are:
+
+ vcm_make_binding()
+ vcm_destroy_binding()
+
+ vcm_alloc()
+
+ vcm_map()
+ vcm_unmap()
+
+vcm_map() is likely to work with physical memory allocated in context
+of other drivers as well (the only requirement is that "page" field of
+struct vcm_phys_part will be set for all physically contiguous parts
+and that each part's size will be multiply of PAGE_SIZE).
+
** Real hardware drivers

There are no real hardware drivers at this time.

The new version is still lacking a few important features. Most
notably, no real hardware MMU has been implemented yet. This may be
ported from original Zach's proposal.

-Also, support for VMM is lacking. This is another thing that can be
-ported from Zach's proposal.
