This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled powerpc/rfi-flush: Differentiate enabled and patched flush types to the 4.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: powerpc-rfi-flush-differentiate-enabled-and-patched-flush-types.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@vger.kernel.org> know about it. From foo@baz Sat Jun 2 15:29:05 CEST 2018 From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Date: Sat, 2 Jun 2018 21:08:52 +1000 Subject: powerpc/rfi-flush: Differentiate enabled and patched flush types To: gregkh@linuxfoundation.org Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org, linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org Message-ID: <20180602110908.29773-8-mpe@ellerman.id.au> From: Mauricio Faria de Oliveira <mauricfo@linux.vnet.ibm.com> commit 0063d61ccfc011f379a31acaeba6de7c926fed2c upstream. Currently the rfi-flush messages print 'Using <type> flush' for all enabled_flush_types, but that is not necessarily true -- as now the fallback flush is always enabled on pseries, but the fixup function overwrites its nop/branch slot with other flush types, if available. So, replace the 'Using <type> flush' messages with '<type> flush is available'. Also, print the patched flush types in the fixup function, so users can know what is (not) being used (e.g., the slower, fallback flush, or no flush type at all if flush is disabled via the debugfs switch).
