Subject: [PATCH v7 2/6] dax: fix cache flush on PMD-mapped pages
Date: Sun,  3 Apr 2022 13:39:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220403053957.10770-3-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220403053957.10770-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com>

The flush_cache_page() only remove a PAGE_SIZE sized range from the cache.
However, it does not cover the full pages in a THP except a head page.
Replace it with flush_cache_range() to fix this issue.  This is just a
documentation issue with the respect to properly documenting the expected
usage of cache flushing before modifying the pmd.  However, in practice
this is not a problem due to the fact that DAX is not available on
architectures with virtually indexed caches per:

  commit d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches")

Fixes: f729c8c9b24f ("dax: wrprotect pmd_t in dax_mapping_entry_mkclean")
