flush_icache_range in the sticore driver

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

 



Hi all,

flush_icache_range is supposed to flush the instruction cache, which is
something no driver should be doing.  It was added in commit 03b18f1b2afe
("[PARISC] Clean up sti_flush") but the explanation in there looks odd.

Can someone shed a light what flushes this tries to flush and why it
can't be done behind a proper API?
