Hi Breno,

Sorry for the late reply. Regarding Xenial, we updated the kernel to a
later upstream stable version since you posted the patches.
4.4.0-123.147 from -proposed should be in sync with 4.4.128 now and your
patches don't apply cleanly any longer. When updating to 4.4.117 we
reverted a bunch of SAUCE rfi-flush patches and replaced them with the
upstream versions. Is there a possibility that your patches are no
longer required with those updates?

Thanks
...Juerg

Title:
  artful: rfi-flush: Switch to new linear fallback flush

Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:
  In Progress
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Artful:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Change flush from congruence-first with dependencies to linear with
  no dependencies, which increases flush performance by 8x on P8, and
  3x on P9 (as measured with null syscall loop, which will have the
  flush area in the L2).

  The flush also becomes simpler and more adaptable to different cache
  geometries.
