[PATCH] arm: fix pmd flushing in map_init_section

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

 



In e651eab0af: "ARM: 7677/1: LPAE: Fix mapping in alloc_init_section for
unaligned addresses", the pmd flushing was broken when split out to
map_init_section. At the end of the final iteration of the while loop,
pmd will point at the pmd_t immediately after the pmds we updated, and
thus flush_pmd_entry(pmd) won't flush the newly modified pmds. This has
been observed to prevent an 11MPCore system from booting.

This patch fixes this by remembering the address of the first pmd we
update and using this as the argument to flush_pmd_entry.
