Subject: [PATCH v3 6/7] arm64, elf: Disable automatic READ_IMPLIES_EXEC for 64-bit address spaces
Date: Mon, 10 Feb 2020 11:30:48 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200210193049.64362-7-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200210193049.64362-1-keescook@chromium.org>

With arm64 64-bit environments, there should never be a need for automatic
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC, as the architecture has always been execute-bit aware
(as in, the default memory protection should be NX unless a region
explicitly requests to be executable).

Suggested-by: Hector Marco-Gisbert <hecmargi@upv.es>
