RE: [PATCH] arch/ppc/8xx_io/enet.c, version 3

Hi,

I am on an 862. Anyway I can't find another definition of dma_cache_inv() but the NO OP in asm-ppc/io.h. Could you give me e hint
where it is defined in your kernel?

It's in asm-ppc/io.h (2.4.20) and there are 2 definitions of dma_cache_inv() which depends on
CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE(should be defined for 8xx). What kernel version are you running?

 Jocke

Thanks, Stephan

Hi Jocke,

in your latest patch you are using dma_cache_inv() instead of invalidate_dcache_range().
The only dma_cache_inv() I can find is in include/asm-ppc/io.h. and it's a "do{}while(0)".
Are you shure that this was your intention? It seames to me like you could remove that call as well.

I guess you are on 8260? On 8260 there is no need for invalidate_dcache_range() since
it's the CPM is cache coherent. On 8xx it is not cache coherent. I switched
to dma_cache_inv() because it's a no op on 8260 and a invalidate_dcache_range() on 8xx so
it would be easy to adapt the patch to both CPU's.
