Subject: ioremap_nocache problem?
Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2001 12:30:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A6D5D28.C132D416@sangate.com> (raw)
ioremap_nocache does the following:
return __ioremap(offset, size, _PAGE_PCD);
However, in drivers/char/mem.c (2.4.0), we see the following:
/* On PPro and successors, PCD alone doesn't always mean
uncached because of interactions with the MTRRs. PCD | PWT
means definitely uncached. */
if (boot_cpu_data.x86 > 3)
prot |= _PAGE_PCD | _PAGE_PWT;
Does this mean ioremap_nocache() may not do the job?
