With my patches the below invpcid_flush_one() is the only remaining user (not counting flush_tlb_global). I know Andy hates on INVPCID, but I could not convince myself that doing a full user invalidate makes sense for flush_tlb_single(), then again maybe it does, the patch is trivial after this. > > arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h | 23 +++++++---------------- > > 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h > > index 481d5094559e..9587722162ee 100644 > > --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h > > +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h > > @@ -438,29 +438,20 @@ static inline void __native_flush_tlb_single(unsigned long addr) > > { > > u32 loaded_mm_asid = this_cpu_read(cpu_tlbstate.loaded_mm_asid); > > > > + asm volatile("invlpg (%0)" ::"r" (addr) : "memory"); > > + > > + if (!kaiser_enabled) > > + return; > > + > > /* > > * Some platforms #GP if we call invpcid(type=1/2) before > > * CR4.PCIDE=1.
