[PATCH 0/3] WX Checking for arm64
From: Laura Abbott
Date: Thu Sep 29 2016 - 17:33:20 EST
Hi,
This is an implementation to check for writable and executable pages on arm64.
This is heavily based on the x86 version which uses the existing page table
dumping code to do the checking. Some notes:
- The W^X checking is important so this option should become defaut eventually.
To make this feasible, the debugfs functionality has been split out as a
separate option. I didn't see a good way to make it modular like x86 but
an option should be good enough.
- This checks all page tables registered with ptdump_register. I don't see this
being called elsewhere right now though.
- Once this is merged, I'd like to see about moving DEBUG_WX to the top level
instead of having each arch call it in mark_rodata.

arm64: dump: Make ptdump debugfs a separate option
arm64: dump: Make the page table dumping seq_file optional
arm64: dump: Add checking for writable and exectuable pages
