The flush_cache_page() only remove a PAGE_SIZE sized range from the cache. However, it does not cover the full pages in a THP except a head page. Replace it with flush_cache_range() to fix this issue. This is just a documentation issue with the respect to properly documenting the expected usage of cache flushing before modifying the pmd. However, in practice this is not a problem due to the fact that DAX is not available on architectures with virtually indexed caches per: commit d92576f1167c ("dax: does not work correctly with virtual aliasing caches") Fixes: f729c8c9b24f ("dax: wrprotect pmd_t in dax_mapping_entry_mkclean") Signed-off-by: Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com> Reviewed-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> --- fs/dax.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
