[PATCH 0/3] Remove 'ehb' instructions from Cavium TLB handlers.

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

 



The Cavium Octeon CPU never needs the ehb instruction, this patch set
removes it resulting in shorter TLB handler hot paths.

I will reply with the three patches.

David Daney (3):
  MIPS: Allow R2 CPUs to turn off generation of 'ehb' instructions.
  MIPS: Remove execution hazard barriers for Octeon.
  MIPS: Remove dead case label.
