On 64-bit CPUs with no-execute support and non-snooping icache, such as 970 or POWER4, we have a software mechanism to ensure coherency of the cache (using exec faults when needed). This was broken due to a logic error when the code was rewritten from assembly to C, previously the assembly code did: BEGIN_FTR_SECTION mr r4,r30 mr r5,r7 bl hash_page_do_lazy_icache END_FTR_SECTION(CPU_FTR_NOEXECUTE|CPU_FTR_COHERENT_ICACHE, CPU_FTR_NOEXECUTE) Which tests that: (cpu_features & (NOEXECUTE | COHERENT_ICACHE)) == NOEXECUTE Which says that the current cpu does have NOEXECUTE, but does not have COHERENT_ICACHE.
