[PATCH 4.18 050/123] mm/tlb, x86/mm: Support invalidating TLB caches for RCU_TABLE_FREE

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

 



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

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

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit d86564a2f085b79ec046a5cba90188e612352806 upstream.

Jann reported that x86 was missing required TLB invalidates when he
hit the !*batch slow path in tlb_remove_table().

This is indeed the case; RCU_TABLE_FREE does not provide TLB (cache)
invalidates, the PowerPC-hash where this code originated and the
Sparc-hash where this was subsequently used did not need that. ARM
which later used this put an explicit TLB invalidate in their
__p*_free_tlb() functions, and PowerPC-radix followed that example.

But when we hooked up x86 we failed to consider this. Fix this by
(optionally) hooking tlb_remove_table() into the TLB invalidate code.

NOTE: s390 was also needing something like this and might now
      be able to use the generic code again.

[ Modified to be on top of Nick's cleanups, which simplified this patch
  now that tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly() really only flushes the TLB - Linus ]

Fixes: 9e52fc2b50de ("x86/mm: Enable RCU based page table freeing (CONFIG_HAVE_RCU_TABLE_FREE=y)")
