From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: tixy@linaro.org (Jon Medhurst) Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2017 17:30:30 +0000 Subject: [PATCH v2] arm: Fix memory attribute inconsistencies when using fixmap Message-ID: <20170321173030.7751-1-tixy@linaro.org> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org To cope with the variety in ARM architectures and configurations, the pagetable attributes for kernel memory are generated at runtime to match the system the kernel finds itself on. This calculated value is stored in pgprot_kernel. However, when early fixmap support was added for arm (commit a5f4c561b3b1) the attributes used for mappings were hard coded because pgprot_kernel is not set up early enough. Unfortunately, when fixmap is used after early boot this means the memory being mapped can have different attributes to existing mappings, potentially leading to unpredictable behaviour. A specific problem also exists due to the hard coded values not include the 'shareable' attribute which means on systems where this matters (e.g. those with multiple CPU clusters) the cache contents for a memory location can become inconsistent between CPUs. To resolve these issues we change fixmap to use the same memory attributes (from pgprot_kernel) that the rest of the kernel uses. To enable this we need to refactor the initialisation code so build_mem_type_table is called early enough. Note, that relies on early param parsing for memory type overrides passed via the kernel command line, so we need to make sure this call is still after parse_early_params().
