[PATCH 5.15 433/667] dax: fix cache flush on PMD-mapped pages

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

 



From: Muchun Song <songmuchun@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit e583b5c472bd23d450e06f148dc1f37be74f7666 ]

The flush_cache_page() only remove a PAGE_SIZE sized range from the cache.
However, it does not cover the full pages in a THP except a head page.
Replace it with flush_cache_range() to fix this issue.  This is just a
documentation issue with the respect to properly documenting the expected
usage of cache flushing before modifying the pmd.  However, in practice
this is not a problem due to the fact that DAX is not available on
architectures with virtually indexed caches per:

  commit d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches")
