From: Guo Ren <redacted> Kernel virtual address translation should avoid care asid or it'll cause more TLB-miss and TLB-refill. Because the current asid in satp belongs to the current process, but the target kernel va TLB entry's asid still belongs to the previous process. Signed-off-by: Guo Ren <redacted> Cc: Anup Patel <redacted> Cc: Palmer Dabbelt <redacted>First of all thanks for doing this series, I had similar changes in mind as follow-up to the ASID allocator. I went through all three patches and at least I don't see any obvious issue but I think we should try testing it more on a few existing platforms.
We've tested it on Allwinner D1 C906 and C910 SMP*4 for a long time, just hope it won't affect u540. (In fact, C910 has used ASID allocator for more than two years with our own kernel-tree. I remember we've talked about it in 2019 plumber.)
