powerpc/mm/radix: Only add X for pages overlapping kernel text
Currently we map the whole linear mapping with PAGE_KERNEL_X. Instead we should check if the page overlaps the kernel text and only then add PAGE_KERNEL_X. Note that we still use 1G pages if they're available, so this will typically still result in a 1G executable page at KERNELBASE. So this fix is primarily useful for catching stray branches to high linear mapping addresses. Without this patch, we can execute at 1G in xmon using: 0:mon> m c000000040000000 c000000040000000 00 l c000000040000000 00000000 01006038 c000000040000004 00000000 2000804e c000000040000008 00000000 x 0:mon> di c000000040000000 c000000040000000 38600001 li r3,1 c000000040000004 4e800020 blr 0:mon> p c000000040000000 return value is 0x1 After we get a 400 as expected: 0:mon> p c000000040000000 *** 400 exception occurred Fixes: 2bfd65e4 ("powerpc/mm/radix: Add radix callbacks for early init routines") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.7+ Signed-off-by: NMichael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Reviewed-by: NAneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: NBalbir Singh <bsingharora@gmail.com>
