Subject: [PATCH 0/4] KVM: arm64: Running the EL2 nVHE code with WXN
Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 15:26:12 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210310152612.3821182-1-maz@kernel.org> (raw)
Since we use distinct permissions when mapping things at EL2 depending
on whether they are text or data, we are already using a W^X setup
with nVHE.
This trivial series aims to enforce it by setting SCTLR_EL2.WXN at all
times. It just cleans up a couple of code paths so that
SCTLR_ELx_FLAGS is only used by the KVM setup code, and finally sets
the WXN flag permanently.
Lightly tested on an A53 system with 4KB and 64KB pages.
Thanks,
M.
