42 * This function forces the icache and prefetched instruction stream to
43 * catch up with reality in two very specific cases:
45 * a) Text was modified using one virtual address and is about to be executed
46 * from the same physical page at a different virtual address.
48 * b) Text was modified on a different CPU, may subsequently be
49 * executed on this CPU, and you want to make sure the new version
50 * gets executed. This generally means you're calling this in an IPI.
52 * If you're calling this for a different reason, you're probably doing
53 * it wrong.
55 * Like all of Linux's memory ordering operations, this is a
56 * compiler barrier as well.

61 * The SERIALIZE instruction is the most straightforward way to
62 * do this, but it is not universally available.

65 serialize();
66 return;
70 * For all other processors, there are quite a few ways to do this.
71 * IRET-to-self is nice because it works on every CPU, at any CPL
72 * (so it's compatible with paravirtualization), and it never exits
73 * to a hypervisor. The only downsides are that it's a bit slow
74 * (it seems to be a bit more than 2x slower than the fastest
75 * options) and that it unmasks NMIs. The "push %cs" is needed,
76 * because in paravirtual environments __KERNEL_CS may not be a
77 * valid CS value when we do IRET directly.
79 * In case NMI unmasking or performance ever becomes a problem,
80 * the next best option appears to be MOV-to-CR2 and an
81 * unconditional jump. That sequence also works on all CPUs,
82 * but it will fault at CPL3 (i.e. Xen PV).
84 * CPUID is the conventional way, but it's nasty: it doesn't
85 * exist on some 486-like CPUs, and it usually exits to a
86 * hypervisor.
88 iret_to_self();
92 * Ensure that a core serializing instruction is issued before returning
93 * to user-mode. x86 implements return to user-space through sysexit,
94 * sysrel, and sysretq, which are not core serializing.

98 /* With PTI, we unconditionally serialize before running user code. */
99 if (static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PTI))
100 return;
103 * Even if we're in an interrupt, we might reschedule before returning,
104 * in which case we could switch to a different thread in the same mm
105 * and return using SYSRET or SYSEXIT. Instead of trying to keep
106 * track of our need to sync the core, just sync right away.
