[PATCH] init: fix misleading "This architecture does not have kernel memory protection" message

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

 



This message leads to think that memory protection is not implemented
for the said architecture, whereas absence of CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
only means that memory protection has not been selected at
compile time.

Don't print this message when CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is
selected by the architecture. Instead, print "Kernel memory protection
not selected by kernel config."
