From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Stephen Boyd Subject: [RFC/PATCH 0/5] Read-only memremap() proposal Date: Fri, 17 May 2019 09:47:41 -0700 Message-ID: <20190517164746.110786-1-swboyd@chromium.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-arm-msm@vger.kernel.org, linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org, devicetree@vger.kernel.org, Evan Green , Rob Herring , Bjorn Andersson , Andy Gross , Will Deacon , Catalin Marinas List-Id: devicetree@vger.kernel.org This patch series implements a read-only version of memremap() via a new MEMREMAP_RO flag. If this is passed in the mapping call, we'll try to map the memory region as read-only if it doesn't intersect with an existing mapping. Otherwise, we'll try to fallback to other flags to try to map the memory that way. The main use case I have is to map the command-db memory region on Qualcomm devices with a read-only mapping. It's already a const marked pointer and the API returns const pointers as well, so this series makes sure that even stray writes can't modify the memory. To get there we introduce a devm version of memremap() for a reserved memory region, add a memremap() flag, and implement support for that flag on arm64.
