[PATCH] flush flush_page_to_ram

Hugh Dickins (hugh@veritas.com)
Thu, 3 Apr 2003 17:47:55 +0100 (BST)


This patch removes the long deprecated flush_page_to_ram. We have
two different schemes for doing this cache flushing stuff, the old
flush_page_to_ram way and the not so old flush_dcache_page etc. way:
see DaveM's Documentation/cachetlb.txt. Keeping flush_page_to_ram
around is confusing, and makes it harder to get this done right.

All architectures are updated, but the only ones where it amounts
to more than deleting a line or two are m68k, mips, mips64 and v850.

I followed a prescription from DaveM (though not to the letter), that
those arches with non-nop flush_page_to_ram need to do what it did
in their clear_user_page and copy_user_page and flush_dcache_page.

Dave is consterned that, in the v850 nb85e case, this patch leaves its
flush_dcache_page as was, uses it in clear_user_page and copy_user_page,
instead of making them all flush icache as well. That may be wrong:
I'm just hesitant to add cruft blindly, changing a flush_dcache macro
to flush icache too; and naively hope that the necessary flush_icache
calls are already in place. Miles, please let us know which way is
right for v850 nb85e - thanks.

Hugh
