[RFC/PATCH 0/5] Read-only memremap() proposal

[RFC/PATCH 0/5] Read-only memremap() proposal

[Stephen Boyd]

This patch series implements a read-only version of memremap() via
a new MEMREMAP_RO flag. If this is passed in the mapping call, we'll
try to map the memory region as read-only if it doesn't intersect
with an existing mapping. Otherwise, we'll try to fallback to other
flags to try to map the memory that way.

The main use case I have is to map the command-db memory region on
Qualcomm devices with a read-only mapping. It's already a const marked
pointer and the API returns const pointers as well, so this series makes
sure that even stray writes can't modify the memory. To get there we
introduce a devm version of memremap() for a reserved memory region, add
a memremap() flag, and implement support for that flag on arm64.

[RFC/PATCH 1/5] reserved_mem: Add a devm_memremap_reserved_mem() API

[Stephen Boyd]

We have a few drivers that need to get a reserved memory region, request
the region, and map the reserved memory with memremap(). Add an API to
do this all in one function call.

This gets rid of some duplicate code, and also makes the reserved memory
region show up as 'cmd-db' memory in /proc/iomem.

[RFC/PATCH 3/5] memremap: Add support for read-only memory mappings

[Stephen Boyd]

Sometimes we have memories that are supposed to be read-only, but when
we map these regions the best we can do is map them as write-back with
MEMREMAP_WB. Introduce a read-only memory mapping (MEMREMAP_RO) that
allows us to map reserved memory regions as read-only. This way, we're
less likely to see these special memory regions become corrupted by
stray writes to them.

Pass in PAGE_KERNEL_RO to the underlying IO mapping mechanism to get a
read-only mapping for the MEMREMAP_RO type of memory mappings that
memremap() supports.

[RFC/PATCH 5/5] soc: qcom: cmd-db: Map with read-only mappings

[Stephen Boyd]

The command DB is read-only already to the kernel because everything is
const marked once we map it. Let's go one step further and try to map
the memory as read-only in the page tables. This should make it harder
for random code to corrupt the database and change the contents.

I have a few places where the first patch will be useful, and the rest
