[PATCH v2 0/3] module: Make .static_call_sites read-only after init

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

 



Section .static_call_sites holds data structures that need to be sorted and
processed only at module load time. The section is never modified
afterwards. Make it therefore read-only after module initialization to
avoid any (non-)accidental modifications.

Changes since v1 [1]:
* Rebase the patches. The kernel now has commit 110b1e070f1d ("module:
  Don't fail module loading when setting ro_after_init section RO failed")
  which addresses a previous problem with handling ro_after_init sections.

  module: Add a separate function to mark sections as read-only after
    init
  module: Make .static_call_sites read-only after init
