To flush the dcache you will have read up to 8KB dummy data and to invalidate the icache you will have to execute up to 16KB nops. I don't know of any other way from user space. hmm, actually I think it will work reliable to perform a store to the same page(s) as the dcbst/icbi will act on. That way you will make the DTLB Error happen(if any) prior to the dcbst/icbi. The worst thing that can happen then is a regular DTLB Miss and that works for dcbst/icbi. You will have to lookout for if dcbst/icbi crosses a page boundary. Then you will have to perform a store to both pages. Jocke # And again later writes: Hi again I think I know what the problem is. The PPC_DCBST;PPC_SYNC;PPC_ICBI;PPC_ISYNC sequence is executed even if no modification has been done i some cases: _dl_linux_resolver(), the last else has no store for insns[0]. these is a insns[1] = OPCODE_B(delta - 4) that does not have a PPC_DCBST. _dl_do_lazy_reloc(), for R_PPC_NONE there is no store. for R_PPC_JMP_SLOT there is a insns[1] = OPCODE_B(delta)that does not have a PPC_DCBST. _dl_do_reloc(), for R_PPC_COPY there is no store. for R_PPC_JMP_SLOT there is a reloc_addr[1] = OPCODE_B(delta) that does not have a PPC_DCBST. _dl_init_got(), I THINK that the PPC_DCBST(plt); PPC_DCBST(plt+4); PPC_DCBST(plt+8); PPC_SYNC; PPC_ICBI(plt); PPC_ICBI(plt+4); PPC_ICBI(plt+8); PPC_ISYNC; is off a bit. The address range does not match the sum of the plt[] and tramp[] address range. Jocke # And then later added the comment: I think that the tramp[] part should be included in the PPC_DCBST/PPC_ICBI sequence. Then you have to add entries for plt+12 and plt+16. If the tramp[] part should be excluded, then all is well. Jocke
