    x86/mm/pti: Keep permissions when cloning kernel text in pti_clone_kernel_text() · 1ac228a7
    Joerg Roedel 提交于
    Mapping the kernel text area to user-space makes only sense if it has the
    same permissions as in the kernel page-table.  If permissions are different
    this will cause a TLB reload when using the kernel page-table, which is as
    good as not mapping it at all.
    
    On 64-bit kernels this patch makes no difference, as the whole range cloned
    by pti_clone_kernel_text() is mapped RO anyway. On 32 bit there are
    writeable mappings in the range, so just keep the permissions as they are.
