Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] sparc64: flush vmalloc ranges from the D-cache on map and unmap
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 15:21:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928132102.1707-3-kaloz@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260928132102.1707-1-kaloz@kernel.org>

The L1 D-cache of Spitfire and Cheetah is indexed with VA bit 13, but
flush_cache_vmap() and flush_cache_vunmap() are no-ops. Lines loaded
through a vmalloc address survive the unmap, and once the page is
written through the other colour, e.g. zeroed through the linear
mapping, a later mapping of the old colour reads stale data. Anonymous
user pages arrive the same way, as tlb_batch_add() does not flush them.
On UltraSPARC III this corrupts BPF programs and module data.

Flush each page on every CPU on map and unmap, or the whole D-cache in
one cross call once the range exceeds its size.

flush_cache_vmap() also runs on the vmemmap, from sparse_init() before
init_IRQ() sets up the cross-call mondo blocks; with the mondo block PA
still zero, flush_dcache_all()'s cross-call lands on physical address 0
instead. The vmemmap has no aliases to flush, so skip addresses outside
vmalloc and module space.

v2: skip the flush outside vmalloc/module space, since
    flush_cache_vmap() also runs on the vmemmap during sparse_init()
    before cross-calls are set up (Stian Halseth); picked up his
    Tested-by.
