Subject: [PATCH 0/6] MIPS Read Inhibit/eXecute Inhibit support (v2).
Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:08:33 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B733C71.8030304@caviumnetworks.com> (raw)

This patch set adds execute and read inhibit support.  By default glibc
based tool chains will create mappings for data areas of a program and
shared libraries with PROT_EXEC cleared.  With this patch applied, a
SIGSEGV is correctly sent if an attempt is made to execute from data
areas.

The first three patch just make a few tweaks in preperation for the
main body of the patch in 4/6.  The last two turn on the feature for
some Octeon CPUs.

I will reply with the six patches.

David Daney (6):
   MIPS: Use 64-bit stores to c0_entrylo on 64-bit kernels.
   MIPS: Add accessor functions and bit definitions for c0_PageGrain
   MIPS: Add TLBR and ROTR to uasm.
   MIPS: Implement Read Inhibit/eXecute Inhibit
   MIPS: Give Octeon+ CPUs their own cputype.
   MIPS: Enable Read Inhibit/eXecute Inhibit for Octeon+ CPUs
