Subject: [PATCH v3 10/13] arm64: mm: Refactor __flush_tlb_range() to take flags
Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2026 13:55:57 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260302135602.3716920-11-ryan.roberts@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260302135602.3716920-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com>
We have function variants with "_nosync", "_local", "_nonotify" as well
as the "last_level" parameter. Let's generalize and simplify by using a
flags parameter to encode all these variants.
As a first step, convert the "last_level" boolean parameter to a flags
parameter and create the first flag, TLBF_NOWALKCACHE. When present,
walk cache entries are not evicted, which is the same as the old
last_level=true.
