[PATCH 4.11 025/114] x86, pmem: Fix cache flushing for iovec write < 8 bytes

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

 



4.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8376efd31d3d7c44bd05be337adde023cc531fa1 upstream.

Commit 11e63f6d920d added cache flushing for unaligned writes from an
iovec, covering the first and last cache line of a >= 8 byte write and
the first cache line of a < 8 byte write.  But an unaligned write of
2-7 bytes can still cover two cache lines, so make sure we flush both
in that case.

Fixes: 11e63f6d920d ("x86, pmem: fix broken __copy_user_nocache ...")
