From 372dbdb90c2cbe391d98649ca1f91a57b268b613 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Piggin Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2023 23:02:45 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] target/ppc: 4xx don't flush TLB for a newly written software TLB entry MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit BookE software TLB is implemented by flushing old translations from the relevant TCG TLB whenever software TLB entries change. This means a new software TLB entry should not have any corresponding cached TCG TLB translations, so there is nothing to flush. The exception is multiple software TLBs that cover the same address and address space, but that is a programming error and results in undefined behaviour, and flushing does not give an obviously better outcome in that case either. Remove the unnecessary flush of a newly written software TLB entry.
