    x86/mm: Consider effective protection attributes in W+X check · 672c0ae0
    Jan Beulich 提交于
    Using just the leaf page table entry flags would cause a false warning
    in case _PAGE_RW is clear or _PAGE_NX is set in a higher level entry.
    Hand through both the current entry's flags as well as the accumulated
    effective value (the latter as pgprotval_t instead of pgprot_t, as it's
    not an actual entry's value).
    
    This in particular eliminates the false W+X warning when running under
    Xen, as commit:
    
      2cc42bac ("x86-64/Xen: eliminate W+X mappings")
    
    had to make the necessary adjustment in L2 rather than L1 (the reason is
    explained there). I.e. _PAGE_RW is clear there in L1, but _PAGE_NX is
    set in L2.
