Can you please rename this function appropriately so us dumb filesystem people don't confuse cpu data cache configurations with the VFS dentry cache aliasing when we read this code? Something like cpu_dcache_is_aliased(), perhaps? -Dave.

Something like > cpu_dcache_is_aliased(), perhaps? Good point, will do. I'm planning go rename as follows for v3 to eliminate confusion with dentry cache (and with "page cache" in general): ARCH_HAS_CACHE_ALIASING -> ARCH_HAS_CPU_CACHE_ALIASING dcache_is_aliasing() -> cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() I noticed that you suggested "aliased" rather than "aliasing", but I followed what arm64 did for icache_is_aliasing(). Do you have a strong preference one way or another ? Thanks, Mathieu

Introduce a generic way to query whether the dcache is virtually aliased on all architectures. Its purpose is to ensure that subsystems which are incompatible with virtually aliased data caches (e.g. FS_DAX) can reliably query this. For dcache aliasing, there are three scenarios dependending on the architecture. Here is a breakdown based on my understanding: A) The dcache is always aliasing: * arc * csky * m68k (note: shared memory mappings are incoherent ? SHMLBA is missing there.) * sh * parisc B) The dcache aliasing is statically known or depends on querying CPU state at runtime: * arm (cache_is_vivt() || cache_is_vipt_aliasing()) * mips (cpu_has_dc_aliases) * nios2 (NIOS2_DCACHE_SIZE > PAGE_SIZE) * sparc32 (vac_cache_size > PAGE_SIZE) * sparc64 (L1DCACHE_SIZE > PAGE_SIZE) * xtensa (DCACHE_WAY_SIZE > PAGE_SIZE) C) The dcache is never aliasing: * alpha * arm64 (aarch64) * hexagon * loongarch (but with incoherent write buffers, which are disabled since commit d23b7795 ("LoongArch: Change SHMLBA from SZ_64K to PAGE_SIZE")) * microblaze * openrisc * powerpc * riscv * s390 * um * x86 Require architectures in A) and B) to select ARCH_HAS_CACHE_ALIASING and implement "dcache_is_aliasing()". Architectures in C) don't select ARCH_HAS_CACHE_ALIASING, and thus dcache_is_aliasing() simply evaluates to "false". Note that this leaves "icache_is_aliasing()" to be implemented as future work. This would be useful to gate features like XIP on architectures which have aliasing dcache-icache but not dcache-dcache.
