-Subject: [PATCH 02/14] x86/mm: Make flush_tlb_mm_range() more predictable
-
-commit ce27374fabf553153c3f53efcaa9bfab9216bd8c upstream.
-
-I'm about to rewrite the function almost completely, but first I
-want to get a functional change out of the way. Currently, if
-flush_tlb_mm_range() does not flush the local TLB at all, it will
-never do individual page flushes on remote CPUs. This seems to be
-an accident, and preserving it will be awkward. Let's change it
-first so that any regressions in the rewrite will be easier to
-bisect and so that the rewrite can attempt to change no visible
-behavior at all.
-
-The fix is simple: we can simply avoid short-circuiting the
-calculation of base_pages_to_flush.
-
-As a side effect, this also eliminates a potential corner case: if
-tlb_single_page_flush_ceiling == TLB_FLUSH_ALL, flush_tlb_mm_range()
-could have ended up flushing the entire address space one page at a
-time.
