From: Yi Li Date: Fri, 4 Dec 2009 06:56:21 +0000 (+0000) Subject: Blackfin: flush caches on SMP when one core calls another via IPI X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c9784ebb23be1e2ef23f537d6df04e0ea0206802;p=linux-beck.git Blackfin: flush caches on SMP when one core calls another via IPI Sometimes a SMP system will randomly panic at boot. This is due to caches being out of sync when one core tries to signal the other. So when one core calls another via IPI, flush the data caches.
