I think it goes through the loop only once. The 'b.lo' saves us here. OTOH, there is no I-cache maintenance done. > It's also a bit annoying that we do a bunch of redundant D-cache > maintenance too. Should we use invalidate_icache_range() here instead? Since we have the __flush_dcache_area() above it for cleaning to PoC, we could use invalidate_icache_range() here. We probably didn't have this function at the time, it was added for KVM (commit 4fee94736603cd6). > (and why does that thing need to toggle uaccess)? invalidate_icache_range() doesn't need to, it works on the kernel linear map. __flush_icache_range() doesn't need to either, that's a side-effect of the fall-through implementation. Anyway, I think Christoph's patch needs to go in with a fixes tag: Fixes: d28f6df1305a ("arm64/kexec: Add core kexec support") Cc: # 4.8.x- and we'll change these functions/helpers going forward for arm64. Happy to pick this up via the arm64 for-next/fixes branch. -- Catalin
