From: Alastair D'Silva <alast...@d-silva.org>
This series addresses a few issues discovered in how we flush caches:
1. Flushes were truncated at 4GB, so larger flushes were incorrect.
2. Flushing the dcache in arch_add_memory was unnecessary
This series also converts much of the cache assembler to C, with the
aim of making it easier to maintain.
Changelog:
V5:
- in "Chunk Calls to flush_dcache_range ...":
- Honour the 'chunk' parameter
- Rebase to latest master
V4:
- Split out VDSO patch
- Pass/cast the correct types in 'powerpc: Convert
flush_icache_range & friends to C'
V3:
- factor out chunking loop
- Replace __asm__ __volatile__ with asm volatile
- Replace flush_coherent_icache_or_return macro with
flush_coherent_icache function
- factor our invalidate_icache_range
- Replace code duplicating clean_dcache_range() in
__flush_dcache_icache() with a call to clean_dcache_range()
- Remove redundant #ifdef CONFIG_44x
- Fix preprocessor logic:
#if !defined(CONFIG_PPC_8xx) & !defined(CONFIG_PPC64)
- Added loop(1|2) to earlyclobbers in flush_dcache_icache_phys
- Drop "Remove extern" patch
- Replace 32 bit shifts in 64 bit VDSO with 64 bit ones
V2:
- Replace C implementation of flush_dcache_icache_phys() with
inline assembler authored by Christophe Leroy
- Add memory clobbers for iccci implementation
- Give __flush_dcache_icache a real implementation, it can't
just be a wrapper around flush_icache_range()
- Remove PPC64_CACHES from misc_64.S
- Replace code duplicating clean_dcache_range() in
flush_icache_range() with a call to clean_dcache_range()
- Replace #ifdef CONFIG_44x with IS_ENABLED(...) in
flush_icache_cange()
- Use 1GB chunks instead of 16GB in arch_*_memory
