Subject: [PATCH v3 7/8] x86/kprobes: enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for kprobes allocations
Date: Sun, 13 Jul 2025 10:17:29 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250713071730.4117334-8-rppt@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250713071730.4117334-1-rppt@kernel.org>

From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@kernel.org>

x86::alloc_insn_page() always allocates ROX memory.

Instead of overriding this method, add EXECMEM_KPROBES entry in
execmem_info with pgprot set to PAGE_KERNEL_ROX and  use ROX cache when
configuration and CPU features allow it.

Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>
