Linux kernel source tree

Flush the CPU cache for the page table memory after each set of writes to the page table. The iommu should have visibility to the updated entries as soon as the map/unmap/etc operations return, like normal coherent hardware does. The caches also have to be flushed before any gather can be submitted to the driver. Implement the same solution to the race as io-pgtable-arm by using a software PTE bit to track if a table entry has been flushed or not. If another thread is still flushing then another concurrent map operation could return without IOMMU visibility to a required table entry. The SW bit will tell the second thread to also flush the cache.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
