This commit fixes the following issues regarding cache maintainance under ARM: * read out I-, and D-cache line size at runtime and use the correct one * remove 'update_data_region' call from unprivileged syscalls * rename 'update_instr_region' syscall to 'cache_coherent_region' to reflect what it doing, namely make I-, and D-cache coherent * restrict 'cache_coherent_region' syscall to one page at a time * lookup the region given in a 'cache_coherent_region' syscall in the page-table of the PD to prevent machine exceptions in the kernel * only clean D-cache lines, do not invalidate them when pages where added on Cortex-A8 and ARMv6 (MMU sees phys. memory here) * remove unused code relicts of cache maintainance In addition it introduces per architecture memory clearance functions used by core, when preparing new dataspaces. Thereby, it optimizes: * on ARMv7 using per-word assignments * on ARMv8 using cacheline zeroing * on x86_64 using 'rept stosq' assembler instruction Fix #3685 |
