From 954ffcb35f5aca428661d29b96c4eee82b3c19cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 01:25:44 -0700 Subject: flush icache before set_pte() on ia64: flush icache at set_pte Current ia64 kernel flushes icache by lazy_mmu_prot_update() *after* set_pte(). This is too late. This patch removes lazy_mmu_prot_update and add modfied set_pte() for flushing if necessary. This patch flush icache of a page when new pte has exec bit. && new pte has present bit && new pte is user's page. && (old *ptep is not present || new pte's pfn is not same to old *ptep's ptn) && new pte's page has no Pg_arch_1 bit. Pg_arch_1 is set when a page is cache consistent. I think this condition checks are much easier to understand than considering "Where sync_icache_dcache() should be inserted ?". pte_user() for ia64 was removed by http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/12/67 as clean-up. So, I added it again. Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki Cc: "Luck, Tony" Cc: Christoph Lameter Cc: Hugh Dickins Cc: Nick Piggin Acked-by: David S.
