This is the new patch for icache flush after DMA emualtion for ia64, and it should address Hollis's comments. Xiantao

Subject: [PATCH] qemu-kvm: Flush icache after dma operations for ia64
ia64 system depends on that platform issues snoop cycle to flush
icache for memory touched by DMA write operations, but virtual DMA
operations is emulated by memcpy, so use explict instrustions to flush
the related icache, otherwise, guest may use obsolete icache.

Instead of the #ifdef, please add a flush_icache_range_after_dma() function which does flush_icache_range() for ia64 and nothing for other architectures. This avoids the #ifdef everywhere, and you will only need one copy of the comment.

I don't think you need to flush here. Instead, put the flush in cpu_physical_memory_unmap(). Every dma access should invoke that. If you find a path which doesn't, it should be fixed.

If you move the flush to cpu_physical_memory_unmap(), this can go away.

Whitespace damage.

access_len here is zero, so this does nothing.
