[patch] pg-r4k.c bugs for R4k systems with a secondary cache

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

 



Ralf,

 This patch fixes a bug in build_cdex() that makes the function invoke the
Create Dirty Exclusive command for the D-cache when a secondary cache is
present.  This is unnecessary as the Create Dirty Exclusive command for
the S-cache acts upon the D-cache appropriately and (for reasons yet to be
investigated) using the command on the D-cache directly leads to memory
corruption on my R4400SC system.  With the patch the system appears
stable.

 The patch also removes references to has_scache which currently disable 
code for the S-cache line size of 128 bytes as the variable is always 0.

 OK to apply?

  Maciej
