[PATCH] Avoid SDRAM access crash

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

 



From: Steve Schefter <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When remapping the SDRAM with the MMU enabled, we need to ensure
that the translation tables are not still in cache before
invalidating the TLB.  Failure to do so will result in the following
crash approximately 50% of the time:
