Subject: [WARNING] x86/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address ..
Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 17:40:39 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.20.1705231734130.2740@nanos> (raw)

As of 4.12-rc1 one of my machines triggers the insecure W+X mapping.

It's consistenly 9 entries close to the beginning of the module space,
before the first actual module starts. See below.

Any ideas which avoid bisecting would be appreciated.

Thanks,

	tglx
