Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/mm/nohash: do not flush the entire mm when range is a single page
Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2018 14:22:50 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180123132250.4A2BD6EF69@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
Most of the time, flush_tlb_range() is called on single pages.
At the time being, flush_tlb_range() inconditionnaly calls
flush_tlb_mm() which flushes at least the entire PID pages and on
older CPUs like 4xx or 8xx it flushes the entire TLB table.
This patch calls flush_tlb_page() instead of flush_tlb_mm() when
the range is a single page.
