If you have global mappings below TASK_SIZE, you would need this sequence when switching either to or from the UEFI page tables: - switch to another set of page tables which only map kernel space with nothing at all in userspace. - flush the TLB. - switch to your target page tables. As I say in response to one of your other patches, it's probably much easier to avoid any global mappings below TASK_SIZE. -- FTTC broadband for 0.8mile line: currently at 9.6Mbps down 400kbps up according to speedtest.net. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
