[PATCH v6 3/4] riscv: Make __flush_tlb_range() loop over pte instead of flushing the whole tlb

Alexandre Ghiti alexghiti at rivosinc.com
Mon Oct 30 06:30:27 PDT 2023


Currently, when the range to flush covers more than one page (a 4K page or
a hugepage), __flush_tlb_range() flushes the whole tlb. Flushing the whole
tlb comes with a greater cost than flushing a single entry so we should
flush single entries up to a certain threshold so that:
threshold * cost of flushing a single entry < cost of flushing the whole
tlb.
