      x86: enhance DEBUG_RODATA support - alternatives · e587cadd
      Mathieu Desnoyers 提交于
      Fix a memcpy that should be a text_poke (in apply_alternatives).
      
      Use kernel_wp_save/kernel_wp_restore in text_poke to support DEBUG_RODATA
      correctly and so the CPU HOTPLUG special case can be removed.
      
      Add text_poke_early, for alternatives and paravirt boot-time and module load
      time patching.
      
      Changelog:
      
      - Fix text_set and text_poke alignment check (mixed up bitwise and and or)
      - Remove text_set
      - Export add_nops, so it can be used by others.
      - Document text_poke_early.
      - Remove clflush, since it breaks some VIA architectures and is not strictly
        necessary.
      - Add kerneldoc to text_poke and text_poke_early.
      - Create a second vmap instead of using the WP bit to support Xen and VMI.
      - Move local_irq disable within text_poke and text_poke_early to be able to
        be sleepable in these functions.
