Hi all, Today's linux-next merge of the akpm tree got a conflict in: arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c between commit: 87143f404f33 ("arm64: mm: use XN table mapping attributes for the linear region") from the arm64 tree and commit: 0a2634348ef8 ("set_memory: allow querying whether set_direct_map_*() is actually enabled") from the akpm tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts. -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell diff --cc arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c index 4c2305cca6d2,fb675069a3b7..000000000000 --- a/arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c +++ b/arch/arm64/mm/mmu.c @@@ -503,20 -490,11 +504,20 @@@ static void __init map_mem(pgd_t *pgdp phys_addr_t kernel_start = __pa_symbol(_stext); phys_addr_t kernel_end = __pa_symbol(__init_begin); phys_addr_t start, end; - int flags = 0; + int flags = NO_EXEC_MAPPINGS; u64 i; + /* + * Setting hierarchical PXNTable attributes on table entries covering + * the linear region is only possible if it is guaranteed that no table + * entries at any level are being shared between the linear region and + * the vmalloc region.
