Can't we cache this? I am not sure I fully understand what you mean here. What would we be caching, instruction, data, both? > If anyone has any advice on how to fix this it would be great:). > Nick One patch that I carried locally and which works for a bunch of MIPS32r1 compatible platforms out there is this one, I tried to address some of Ralf's comment as well about the code duplication (maybe I can get around to resubmit it): http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1565/ -- Florian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
