[RFC PATCH 5/9] ARM64: mm: Add support for flushing huge pages.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The code to flush the dcache of a dirty page, __flush_dcache_page,
will only flush the head of a HugeTLB/THP page.

This patch adjusts __flush_dcache_page such that the order of the
compound page is used to determine the size of area to flush.
