This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled powerpc/mm/radix: Update ERAT flushes when invalidating TLB to the 4.9-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: powerpc-mm-radix-update-erat-flushes-when-invalidating-tlb.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 90c1e3c2fafec57fcb55b5d69bcf293b1a5fc8b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Feb 2017 13:05:16 +1100 Subject: powerpc/mm/radix: Update ERAT flushes when invalidating TLB From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 90c1e3c2fafec57fcb55b5d69bcf293b1a5fc8b3 upstream. Three tiny changes to the ERAT flushing logic: First don't make it depend on DD1. It hasn't been decided yet but we might run DD2 in a mode that also requires explicit flushes for performance reasons so make it unconditional. We also add a missing isync, and finally remove the flush from _tlbiel_va as it is only necessary for congruence-class invalidations (PID, LPID and full TLB), not targetted invalidations.
