The shmlba.h file related to the LoongArch architecture was introduced in commit3eed5f3a1e
to address the mismatch in the SHMLBA definition between glibc and the kernel. See [1]. The SHMLBA definition was later updated in commit d23b77953f5a. See [2]. Now, we adopt the definition from the common layer. [1]: commit3eed5f3a1e
Author: caiyinyu <caiyinyu@loongson.cn> Date: Thu May 25 17:01:11 2023 +0800 LoongArch: Fix inconsistency in SHMLBA macro values between glibc and kernel The LoongArch glibc was using the value of the SHMLBA macro from common code, which is __getpagesize() (16k), but this was inconsistent with the value of the SHMLBA macro in the kernel, which is SZ_64K (64k). This caused several shmat-related tests in LTP (Linux Test Project) to fail. This commit fixes the issue by ensuring that the glibc's SHMLBA macro value matches the value used in the kernel like other architectures. [2]: commit d23b77953f5a4fbf94c05157b186aac2a247ae32 Author: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@kernel.org> Date: Wed Jan 17 12:43:08 2024 +0800 LoongArch: Change SHMLBA from SZ_64K to PAGE_SIZE LoongArch has hardware page coloring for L1 Cache, so we don't have cache aliases. But SFB (Store Fill Buffer) still has aliases. So we define SHMLBA to SZ_64K previously. But there are losts of applications use PAGE_SIZE rather than SHMLBA to mmap() file pages and shared pages. Of course we can fix them one by one, but not easy. On the other hand, we can simply disable SFB for 4KB page size to fix cache alias (there will be performance decrease, but acceptable), and in future we will fix SFB in hardware. So we can safely define SHMLBA to PAGE_SIZE (use the generic shmparam.h) to make life easier.
