With kubridge guest mappings active, every kuKernelFlushCaches cleared the whole dynarmic cache, since a write through one alias may change code cached at another. Guests with their own JIT (Flycast's SH4 dynarec) flush once per compiled block, tens of times per second, so dynarmic kept retranslating everything: about 94% of the emulated thread's time in Flycast. Invalidate the flushed range plus the pages that share backing with it instead. Backing pages keep the addresses mapped to them (pruned lazily when a mapping changes), so the lookup only walks the pages of the range. Flycast's dynarec goes from ~24 s to ~11 s of host time per emulated second. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
