sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to

2017-03-02T07:42:35Z

We are going to split out of , which will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files. Create a trivial placeholder file that just maps to to make this patch obviously correct and bisectable. Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

ARM: mm: round the initrd reservation to page boundaries

2017-02-28T11:06:22Z

Round the initrd memblock reservation to page boundaries to prevent other data sharing the initrd pages. This prevents an allocation possibly overlapping with the initrd, which would later get trampled on in free_initrd_mem(). Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: mm: clean up initrd initialisation

2017-02-28T11:06:21Z

Rather than repeatedly testing phys_initrd_size to see if the initrd is still enabled, return from the new function to avoid executing the remaining initialisation. Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: mm: move initrd init code out of arm_memblock_init()

2017-02-28T11:06:20Z

Move the ARM initrd initialisation code out of arm_memblock_init() into its own function, so it can be cleaned up. Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8646/1: mmu: decouple VECTORS_BASE from Kconfig

2017-02-28T11:06:12Z

For MMU configurations, VECTORS_BASE is always 0xffff0000, a macro definition will suffice. For no-MMU, exception base address is dynamically determined in subsequent patches. To preserve bisectability, now make the macro applicable for no-MMU scenario too. Thanks to 0-DAY kernel test infrastructure that found the bisectability issue. This macro will be restricted to MMU case upon dynamically determining exception base address for no-MMU. Once exception address is handled dynamically for no-MMU, VECTORS_BASE can be removed from Kconfig. Signed-off-by: afzal mohammed Tested-by: Vladimir Murzin Signed-off-by: Russell King

ARM: 8639/1: Define KERNEL_START and KERNEL_END

2017-02-28T11:05:46Z

In preparation for adding CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL support, define a set of common constants: KERNEL_START and KERNEL_END which abstract CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL vs. !CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL. Update the code where relevant. Acked-by: Russell King Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: Russell King

arch: Rename CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_DEBUG_MODULE_RONX

2017-02-07T20:32:52Z

Both of these options are poorly named. The features they provide are necessary for system security and should not be considered debug only. Change the names to CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX to better describe what these options do. Signed-off-by: Laura Abbott Acked-by: Jessica Yu Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

ARM: 8502/1: mm: mark section-aligned portion of rodata NX

2016-02-11T15:44:10Z

When rodata is large enough that it crosses a section boundary after the kernel text, mark the rest NX. This is as close to full NX of rodata as we can get without splitting page tables or doing section alignment via CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA. When the config is: CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y # CONFIG_DEBUG_ALIGN_RODATA is not set Before: ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- 0x80000000-0x80100000 1M RW NX SHD 0x80100000-0x80a00000 9M ro x SHD 0x80a00000-0xa0000000 502M RW NX SHD After: ---[ Kernel Mapping ]--- 0x80000000-0x80100000 1M RW NX SHD 0x80100000-0x80700000 6M ro x SHD 0x80700000-0x80a00000 3M ro NX SHD 0x80a00000-0xa0000000 502M RW NX SHD Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Reviewed-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Russell King
