This patch reworks the way we do I and D cache coherency on PowerPC. The "old" way was split in 3 different parts depending on the processor type: - Hash with per-page exec support (64-bit and >= POWER4 only) does it at hashing time, by preventing exec on unclean pages and cleaning pages on exec faults. - Everything without per-page exec support (32-bit hash, 8xx, and 64-bit < POWER4) does it for all page going to user space in update_mmu_cache(). - Embedded with per-page exec support does it from do_page_fault() on exec faults, in a way similar to what the hash code does. That leads to confusion, and bugs. For example, the method using update_mmu_cache() is racy on SMP where another processor can see the new PTE and hash it in before we have cleaned the cache, and then blow trying to execute. This is hard to hit but I think it has bitten us in the past. Also, it's inefficient for embedded where we always end up having to do at least one more page fault. This reworks the whole thing by moving the cache sync into two main call sites, though we keep different behaviours depending on the HW capability. The call sites are set_pte_at() which is now made out of line, and ptep_set_access_flags() which joins the former in pgtable.c The base idea for Embedded with per-page exec support, is that we now do the flush at set_pte_at() time when coming from an exec fault, which allows us to avoid the double fault problem completely (we can even improve the situation more by implementing TLB preload in update_mmu_cache() but that's for later). If for some reason we didn't do it there and we try to execute, we'll hit the page fault, which will do a minor fault, which will hit ptep_set_access_flags() to do things like update _PAGE_ACCESSED or _PAGE_DIRTY if needed, we just make this guys also perform the I/D cache sync for exec faults now. This second path is the catch all for things that weren't cleaned at set_pte_at() time. For cpus without per-pag exec support, we always do the sync at set_pte_at(), thus guaranteeing that when the PTE is visible to other processors, the cache is clean. For the 64-bit hash with per-page exec support case, we keep the old mechanism for now. I'll look into changing it later, once I've reworked a bit how we use _PAGE_EXEC. This is also a first step for adding _PAGE_EXEC support for embedded platforms Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
