From f13ae30e1397e3bfb38feb3b6e889af5d021f13d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Chiang Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 14:03:23 -0600 Subject: [IA64] allow user to force_pal_cache_flush The sequence executed in check_sal_cache_flush: - pend a timer interrupt - call SAL_CACHE_FLUSH - see if interrupt is still pending can hang HP machines with buggy SAL_CACHE_FLUSH implementations. Provide a kernel command-line argument to allow users skip this check if desired. Using this parameter will force ia64_sal_cache_flush to call ia64_pal_cache_flush() instead of SAL_CACHE_FLUSH.
