[PATH V3] arm64: mm: Optimise tlb flush logic where we have >4K granule

Fri May 2 06:49:00 PDT 2014


The tlb maintainence functions: __cpu_flush_user_tlb_range and
__cpu_flush_kern_tlb_range do not take into consideration the page
granule when looping through the address range, and repeatedly flush
tlb entries for the same page when operating with 64K pages.

This patch re-works the logic s.t. we instead advance the loop by
 1 << (PAGE_SHIFT - 12), so avoid repeating ourselves.

Also the routines have been converted from assembler to static inline
functions to aid with legibility and potential compiler optimisations.

The isb() has been removed from flush_tlb_kernel_range(.) as it is
only needed when changing the execute permission of a mapping. If one
needs to set an area of the kernel as execute/non-execute an isb()
must be inserted after the call to flush_tlb_kernel_range.

Changed in V3: isb() taken out of flush_tlb_kernel_range, as it is only
really needed when changing execute permissions. This has been
documented in the commit log.
