[RFC PATCH v3 0/2] MIPS non-executable stack support

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

 



This series allows us to support non-executable stacks on systems with
RIXI by moving delay slot instruction emulation off of the user stack &
into a dedicated page.

This is a revision of patches 6114/6125 & 6115 from a few years back:

    https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6114
    https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6125
    https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/6115

The series applies atop v4.7-rc5, and is marked RFC as it could use a
little more testing before I'd be happy with it being merged.

Paul Burton (2):
  MIPS: use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions
  MIPS: non-exec stack & heap when non-exec PT_GNU_STACK is present
