This patch makes those other functions call flush_dcache_page() instead, so the logic's all in one place. This will make life less confusing if we ever need to tweak the details of the the lazy icache flush mechanism. arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c | 14 ++------------ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-) Signed-off-by: David Gibson Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras --- diff --git a/arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c b/arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c index 15aac0d78dfa..550517c2dd42 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/mm/mem.c @@ -435,17 +435,12 @@ void clear_user_page(void *page, unsigned long vaddr, struct page *pg) { clear_page(page); - if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE)) - return; /* * We shouldnt have to do this, but some versions of glibc * require it (ld.so assumes zero filled pages are icache clean) * - Anton */ - - /* avoid an atomic op if possible */ - if (test_bit(PG_arch_1, &pg->flags)) - clear_bit(PG_arch_1, &pg->flags); + flush_dcache_page(pg); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(clear_user_page); @@ -469,12 +464,7 @@ void copy_user_page(void *vto, void *vfrom, unsigned long vaddr, return; #endif - if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE)) - return; - - /* avoid an atomic op if possible */ - if (test_bit(PG_arch_1, &pg->flags)) - clear_bit(PG_arch_1, &pg->flags); + flush_dcache_page(pg); } void flush_icache_user_range(struct vm_area_struct *vma, struct page *page,
