Subject: [RFC/PATCH v4 1/7] ARM: ARM11 MPCore: pgd_alloc is not preempt safe
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2011 09:47:28 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1318945654-548-2-git-send-email-gdavis@mvista.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1318945654-548-1-git-send-email-gdavis@mvista.com>
From: Konstantin Baidarov <kbaidarov@mvista.com>
If preemption and subsequent task migration occurs during a call to
pgd_alloc on ARM11 MPCore machines, global memory state can become
inconsistent. To prevent inconsistent memory state on these
machines, disable preemption around initialization and flushing
of new PGDs.
