Re: [PATCH v6 01/13] riscv: Flush the instruction cache during SMP bringup

Hi Samuel,

On 27/03/2024 05:49, Samuel Holland wrote:
Instruction cache flush IPIs are sent only to CPUs in cpu_online_mask,
so they will not target a CPU until it calls set_cpu_online() earlier in
smp_callin(). As a result, if instruction memory is modified between the
CPU coming out of reset and that point, then its instruction cache may
contain stale data. Therefore, the instruction cache must be flushed
after the set_cpu_online() synchronization point.

This should go into -fixes, would you mind sending this patch on its own? I think it is easier for Palmer.

Thanks,
