This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ARM: invalidate L1 before enabling coherency to the 4.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: arm-invalidate-l1-before-enabling-coherency.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From bac51ad9d14f6baed3730ef53bedc1eb2238563a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2015 00:30:24 +0100 Subject: ARM: invalidate L1 before enabling coherency From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit bac51ad9d14f6baed3730ef53bedc1eb2238563a upstream. We must invalidate the L1 cache before enabling coherency, otherwise secondary CPUs can inject invalid cache lines into the coherent CPU cluster, which could then be migrated to other CPUs. This fixes a recent regression with SoCFPGA randomly failing to boot.
