Hello,
Is it sufficient to set "CONFIG_MIPS_UNCACHED" in order to track
a
possible cache related problem otherwise hard to debug.
in so many places the functions to operate on caches are called
directly..don't they should be placed under
"#ifdef CONFIg_MIPS_UNCACHED" , if not technically then at least
for consistent coding.
secondly if once i have gone for UNCACHED operation then
dump_tlb_all
should show the "page cheency attribute" for all entries as
"UNCACHED" anywhere in whole address space..
in my case this attribute for some entries in TLB is still
showing
"Cacheable, noncoherent, write-through, no write allocate" ..how
this is possible..
following is the relevant code:--
#ifdef CONFIG_MIPS_UNCACHED
change_cp0_config(CONF_CM_CMASK, CONF_CM_UNCACHED);
#else
change_cp0_config(CONF_CM_CMASK,
CONF_CM_CACHABLE_NONCOHERENT);
#endif
Best Regards,
Atul
