Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Fix get_user_page_fast() for mips with cache alias
Date: Fri, 14 Jun 2013 14:10:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1371233403-30153-1-git-send-email-kdasu.kdev@gmail.com> (raw)
get_user_pages_fast() is missing cache flushes for MIPS platforms
with cache alias. Filesystem failures observed with DirectIO
operations due to missing flush_anon_page() that use page coloring
logic to work with cache aliases. This fix falls through to take
slow_irqon path that calls get_user_pages() that has required
logic for platforms where cpu_has_dc_aliases is true.
