When in split mode, instruction relocation and data relocation are not equal. So far we implemented this mode by reserving a special pseudo-VSID for the two cases and flushing all PTEs when going into split mode, which is slow. Unfortunately 32bit Linux and Mac OS X use split mode extensively. So to not slow down things too much, I came up with a different idea: Mark the split mode with a bit in the VSID and then treat it like any other segment. This means we can just flush the shadow segment cache, but keep the PTEs intact. I verified that this works with ppc32 Linux and Mac OS X 10.4 guests and does speed them up.
