highmem and cache handling

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

 



Hello everyone!

I can see across the Linux kernel source code that some
kmap*()/kunmap*() pairs are coupled with flush_dcache_page().
Sometimes it is done outside kmap*()/kunmap() pairs, sometimes inside...
I'm curious is there any rule how it should be done correctly or it
should be handled case by case?

Best wishes,
Vladimir Murzin
