[RFC PATCH v2 01/11] riscv: asid: Use global mappings for kernel pages

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

 



From: Guo Ren <guoren@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We map kernel pages into all addresses space, so they can be marked as
global. This allows hardware to avoid flushing the kernel mappings when
moving between address spaces.
