[PATCH 4.19 056/191] powerpc: select ARCH_WANT_IRQS_OFF_ACTIVATE_MM

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

 



From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 66acd46080bd9e5ad2be4b0eb1d498d5145d058e ]

powerpc uses IPIs in some situations to switch a kernel thread away
from a lazy tlb mm, which is subject to the TLB flushing race
described in the changelog introducing ARCH_WANT_IRQS_OFF_ACTIVATE_MM.
