[PATCH 3.2 104/126] ARM: dma-mapping: don't allow DMA mappings to be marked executable

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

 



3.2.85-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0ea1ec713f04bdfac343c9702b21cd3a7c711826 upstream.

DMA mapping permissions were being derived from pgprot_kernel directly
without using PAGE_KERNEL.  This causes them to be marked with executable
permission, which is not what we want.  Fix this.
