Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ARM: errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2010 16:53:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1279209238-16234-2-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1279209238-16234-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com>

On versions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r2p0, performing TLB invalidations by
ASID match can result in the incorrect ASID being broadcast to other CPUs.
As a consequence of this, the targetted TLB entries are not invalidated
across the system.

This workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate entries
regardless of the ASID.
