[PATCH 4.14 016/146] x86/entry: Align entry text section to PMD boundary

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

 



4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2f7412ba9c6af5ab16bdbb4a3fdb1dcd2b4fd3c2 upstream.

The (irq)entry text must be visible in the user space page tables. To allow
simple PMD based sharing, make the entry text PMD aligned.
