[PATCH 3.10 23/51] ARM: lpae: fix definition of PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS

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

 



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

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

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>

commit e38a517578d6c0f764b0d0f6e26dcdf9f70c69d7 upstream.

For 2-level page tables, PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS describes the offset between
Linux PTEs and hardware PTEs. On LPAE, there is no distinction (since
we have 64-bit descriptors with plenty of space) so PTE_HWTABLE_PTRS
should be 0. Unfortunately, it is wrongly defined as PTRS_PER_PTE,
meaning that current pte table flushing is off by a page. Luckily,
all current LPAE implementations are SMP, so the hardware walker can
snoop L1.

This patch fixes the broken definition.
