/*
* Options for cacheflush system call.
*
* The ICACHE flush is performed on all cores currently running the
* current process's address space. The intent is for user
* applications to be able to modify code, invoke the system call,
* then allow arbitrary other threads in the same address space to see
* the newly-modified code. Passing a length of CHIP_L1I_CACHE_SIZE()
* or more invalidates the entire icache on all cores in the address
* spaces. (Note: currently this option invalidates the entire icache
* regardless of the requested address and length, but we may choose
* to honor the arguments at some point.)
*
* Flush and invalidation of memory can normally be performed with the
* __insn_flush(), __insn_inv(), and __insn_finv() instructions from
* userspace. The DCACHE option to the system call allows userspace
* to flush the entire L1+L2 data cache from the core. In this case,
* the address and length arguments are not used. The DCACHE flush is
* restricted to the current core, not all cores in the address space.
