[PATCH] spufs: switchable spu contexts
Add some infrastructure for saving and restoring the context of an SPE. This patch creates a new structure that can hold the whole state of a physical SPE in memory. It also contains code that avoids races during the context switch and the binary code that is loaded to the SPU in order to access its registers. The actual PPE- and SPE-side context switch code are two separate patches. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arndb@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
