Subject: [PATCH V5 1/3] riscv: Use global mappings for kernel pages
Date: Sun, 30 May 2021 16:49:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1622393366-46079-2-git-send-email-guoren@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1622393366-46079-1-git-send-email-guoren@kernel.org>

From: Guo Ren <guoren@linux.alibaba.com>

We map kernel pages into all addresses space, so they can be marked as
global. This allows hardware to avoid flushing the kernel mappings when
moving between address spaces.
