Subject: [PATCH v7 2/2] arm64/Kconfig: Remove CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED
Date: Tue, 9 Sep 2025 11:32:36 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250909033236.4099-3-shijie@os.amperecomputing.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250909033236.4099-1-shijie@os.amperecomputing.com>
After patch "arm64: refacotr the rodata=xxx",
the "rodata=on" becomes the default.
......................................
if (!strcmp(arg, "on")) {
rodata_enabled = rodata_full = true;
return true;
}
......................................
The rodata_full is always "true" via "rodata=on" and does not
depend on the config RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED anymore,
so it can be dropped.

- Apply read-only attributes of VM areas to the linear alias of
- the backing pages as well. This prevents code or read-only data
- from being modified (inadvertently or intentionally) via another

- be turned off at runtime by passing rodata=[off|on] (and turned on
- with rodata=full if this option is set to 'n')

- This requires the linear region to be mapped down to pages,
- which may adversely affect performance in some cases.
