[PATCH V2 0/5] NestMMU pte upgrade workaround for mprotect

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We can upgrade pte access (R -> RW transition) via mprotect. We need
to make sure we follow the recommended pte update sequence as outlined in
commit: bd5050e38aec ("powerpc/mm/radix: Change pte relax sequence to handle nest MMU hang")
for such updates. This patch series do that.

Changes from V1:
* Restrict ths only for R->RW upgrade. We don't need to do this for Autonuma
* Restrict this only for radix translation mode.
