From 20f4d3cb9b94ce3fec9a6135b9ad075b82b24f41 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Bottomley Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2006 09:00:04 -0700 Subject: [PARISC] parisc specific kmap API implementation for pa8800 This patch fixes the pa8800 at a gross level (there are still other subtle incoherency issues which can still cause crashes and HPMCs). What it does is try to force eject inequivalent aliases before they become visible to the L2 cache (which is where we get the incoherence problems). A new function (parisc_requires_coherency) is introduced in asm/processor.h to identify the pa8x00 processors (8800 and 8900) which have the issue.
