* mm: fix races between swapoff and flush dcacheHuang Ying2018-04-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed during accessing. The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff, for example, CPU1 CPU2 __get_user_pages() swapoff() flush_dcache_page() mapping = page_mapping() ... exit_swap_address_space() ... kvfree(spaces) mapping_mapped(mapping) The address space may be accessed after being freed. But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all. So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping() is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are replaced with page_mapping_file().

* nios2: remove end address checking for initdaLey Foon Tan2015-04-201-3/+0
| | | | | | | Remove the end address checking for initda function. We need to invalidate each address line for initda instruction, from start to end address. Signed-off-by: Ley Foon Tan <lftan@altera.com>
* nios2: fix cache coherency issue when debug with gdbLey Foon Tan2015-04-101-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the end address checking for flushda function. We need to flush each address line for flushda instruction, from start to end address. This is because flushda instruction only flush the cache if tag and line fields are matched. Change to use ldwio instruction (bypass cache) to load the instruction that causing trap. Our interest is the actual instruction that executed by the processor, this should be uncached. Note, EA address might be an userspace cached address. Signed-off-by: Ley Foon Tan <lftan@altera.com>
