Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] Enable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
Date: Tue,  6 Jun 2017 14:29:36 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170606042945.24997-1-bsingharora@gmail.com> (raw)

Enable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX for PPC64/BOOK3S

These patches enable RX mappings of kernel text.
rodata is mapped RX as well as a trade-off, there
are more details in the patch description

As a prerequisite for R/O text, patch_instruction
is moved over to using a separate mapping that
allows write to kernel text. xmon/ftrace/kprobes
have been moved over to work with patch_instruction

There is a bug fix, the updatepp and updateboltedpp
(pseries) providers, did not use flags as described in
PAPR

There are patches for 32 bit support from Christophe Leroy
at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/768257/. The patches
for map_page to map_kernel_page are a pre-requisite to
this series being applied.

Another build failure was reported, because instead
of using ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY as a gate for set_memory.h
inclusion, some of the infrastructure in the core kernel
uses CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. I've sent a fix to the
fix the latter.

Changelog v3:
	Support radix
	Drop ptdump patch, already picked from v2
Changelog v2:
	Support optprobes via patch_instruction
