[PATCH v16 15/26] mm: Fixup places that call pte_mkwrite() directly

From: Yu-cheng Yu
Date: Wed Dec 09 2020 - 17:37:11 EST


When serving a page fault, maybe_mkwrite() makes a PTE writable if it is in
a writable vma. A shadow stack vma is writable, but its PTEs need
_PAGE_DIRTY to be set to become writable. For this reason, maybe_mkwrite()
has been updated.

There are a few places that call pte_mkwrite() directly, but effect the
same result as from maybe_mkwrite(). These sites need to be updated for
shadow stack as well. Thus, change them to maybe_mkwrite():

- do_anonymous_page() and migrate_vma_insert_page() check VM_WRITE directly
and call pte_mkwrite(), which is the same as maybe_mkwrite(). Change
them to maybe_mkwrite().

- In do_numa_page(), if the numa entry 'was-writable', then pte_mkwrite()
is called directly. Fix it by doing maybe_mkwrite().

- In change_pte_range(), pte_mkwrite() is called directly. Replace it with
maybe_mkwrite().

A shadow stack vma is writable but has different vma
flags, and handled accordingly in maybe_mkwrite().
