[BUGFIX][PATCH] flush icache before set_pte() in ia64 take7, [0/2]

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch set is for fixing SIGILL trouble in NFS by adding
sync_icache_dcache() before set_pte(). (see patches for detail)
Tested with my NUMA box and works well.

Chanves V6 -> V7
- dropped add-on patches for cpu family handling.

For this post, I wrote an easy test for this SIGILL/NFS problem.
Please verify.

This is my result.

Distro: RHEL5.
CPU: Montecito 1.4GHz, 4 sockets, 8core.
