PAE40 confiuration in hardware extends some of the address registers for TLB/cache ops to 2 words. So far kernel was NOT setting the higher word if feature was not enabled in software which is wrong. Those need to be set to 0 in such case. Normally this would be done in the cache flush / tlb ops, however since these registers only exist conditionally, this would have to be conditional to a flag being set on boot which is expensive/ugly - specially for the more common case of PAE exists but not in use. Optimize that by zero'ing them once at boot - nobody will write to them afterwards Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org #4.4+ Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
