The start of mips_cps_core_entry is patched in order to provide the code with the address of the CM register region at a point where it will be running non-coherent with the rest of the system. However the cache wasn't being flushed after that patching which could in principle lead to secondary cores using an invalid CM base address. The patching is moved to cps_prepare_cpus since local_flush_icache_range has not been initialised at the point cps_smp_setup is called. Signed-off-by: Paul Burton <paul.burton@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v2: - Use dma_cache_wback_inv instead of local_flush_icache_range in order to ensure that the L2 is also flushed on systems which have one. --- arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.c | 12 +++++++----- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.c b/arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.c index c7879fb..c3661ca 100644 --- a/arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.c +++ b/arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.c @@ -44,7 +44,6 @@ static void __init cps_smp_setup(void) { unsigned int ncores, nvpes, core_vpes; int c, v; - u32 *entry_code; /* Detect & record VPE topology */ ncores = mips_cm_numcores(); @@ -82,10 +81,6 @@ static void __init cps_smp_setup(void) /* Initialise core 0 */ mips_cps_core_init(); - /* Patch the start of mips_cps_core_entry to provide the CM base */ - entry_code = (u32 *)&mips_cps_core_entry; - UASM_i_LA(&entry_code, 3, (long)mips_cm_base); - /* Make core 0 coherent with everything */ write_gcr_cl_coherence(0xff); } @@ -93,9 +88,16 @@ static void __init cps_smp_setup(void) static void __init cps_prepare_cpus(unsigned int max_cpus) { unsigned ncores, core_vpes, c; + u32 *entry_code; mips_mt_set_cpuoptions(); + /* Patch the start of mips_cps_core_entry to provide the CM base */ + entry_code = (u32 *)&mips_cps_core_entry; + UASM_i_LA(&entry_code, 3, (long)mips_cm_base); + dma_cache_wback_inv((unsigned long)&mips_cps_core_entry, + (void *)entry_code - (void *)&mips_cps_core_entry); + /* Allocate core boot configuration structs */ ncores = mips_cm_numcores(); mips_cps_core_bootcfg = kcalloc(ncores, sizeof(*mips_cps_core_bootcfg), -- 1.8.5.3
