arm进程调度中的上下文切换

前段时间，偷懒了。
上次到了cpu_switch_mm，它是：
#define cpu_switch_mm(pgd,tsk) cpu_set_pgd(__virt_to_phys((unsigned long)(pgd)))
上面引用到了：
#define cpu_set_pgd(pgd) processor.pgtable.set_pgd(pgd)
和
#define __virt_to_phys(vpage) ((vpage) - PAGE_OFFSET + PHYS_OFFSET) (摘自AT9200，所有ARM体系的都差不多)
processor是processor结构体的实例，processor定义如下，是个很负责的结构。
/*
* Don't change this structure - ASM code
* relies on it.
*/
extern struct processor {
/* MISC
* get data abort address/flags
*/
void (*_data_abort)(unsigned long pc);
/*
* check for any bugs
*/
void (*_check_bugs)(void);
/*
* Set up any processor specifics
*/
void (*_proc_init)(void);
/*
* Disable any processor specifics
*/
void (*_proc_fin)(void);
/*
* Special stuff for a reset
*/
volatile void (*reset)(unsigned long addr);
/*
* Idle the processor
*/
int (*_do_idle)(void);
/*
* Processor architecture specific
*/
struct { /* CACHE */
/*
* flush all caches
*/
void (*clean_invalidate_all)(void);
/*
* flush a specific page or pages
*/
void (*clean_invalidate_range)(unsigned long address, unsigned long end, int flags);
/*
* flush a page to RAM
*/
void (*_flush_ram_page)(void *virt_page);
} cache;
struct { /* D-cache */
/*
* invalidate the specified data range
*/
void (*invalidate_range)(unsigned long start, unsigned long end);
/*
* clean specified data range
*/
void (*clean_range)(unsigned long start, unsigned long end);
/*
* obsolete flush cache entry
*/
void (*clean_page)(void *virt_page);
/*
* clean a virtual address range from the
* D-cache without flushing the cache.
*/
void (*clean_entry)(unsigned long start);
} dcache;
struct { /* I-cache */
/*
* invalidate the I-cache for the specified range
*/
void (*invalidate_range)(unsigned long start, unsigned long end);
/*
* invalidate the I-cache for the specified virtual page
*/
void (*invalidate_page)(void *virt_page);
} icache;
struct { /* TLB */
/*
* flush all TLBs
*/
void (*invalidate_all)(void);
/*
* flush a specific TLB
*/
void (*invalidate_range)(unsigned long address, unsigned long end);
/*
* flush a specific TLB
*/
void (*invalidate_page)(unsigned long address, int flags);
} tlb;
struct { /* PageTable */
/*
* Set the page table
*/
void (*set_pgd)(unsigned long pgd_phys);
/*
* Set a PMD (handling IMP bit 4)
*/
void (*set_pmd)(pmd_t *pmdp, pmd_t pmd);
/*
* Set a PTE
*/
void (*set_pte)(pte_t *ptep, pte_t pte);
} pgtable;
} processor;
可以想象每个处理器都应该有一个processor实例与之对应。ARM的内存管理是怎样的呢？
