Subject: [PATCH] arm64/mm: Intercept pfn changes in set_pte_at()
Date: Wed, 16 Nov 2022 08:40:01 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221116031001.292236-1-anshuman.khandual@arm.com> (raw)

Changing pfn on a user page table mapped entry, without first going through
break-before-make (BBM) procedure is unsafe. This just updates set_pte_at()
to intercept such changes, via an updated pgattr_change_is_safe(). This new
check happens via __check_racy_pte_update(), which has now been renamed as
__check_safe_pte_update().
