[PATCH 03/11] x86/mm: introduce "default" kernel PTE mask
From: Dave Hansen
Date: Tue Apr 03 2018 - 21:12:46 EST
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The __PAGE_KERNEL_* page permissions are "raw". They contain bits
that may or may not be supported on the current processor. They need
to be filtered by a mask (currently __supported_pte_mask) to turn them
into a value that we can actually set in a PTE.
These __PAGE_KERNEL_* values all contain _PAGE_GLOBAL. But, with PTI,
we want to be able to support _PAGE_GLOBAL (have the bit set in
__supported_pte_mask) but not have it appear in any of these masks by
default.
This patch creates a new mask, __default_kernel_pte_mask, and applies
it when creating all of the PAGE_KERNEL_* masks. This makes
PAGE_KERNEL_* safe to use anywhere (they only contain supported bits).
It also ensures that PAGE_KERNEL_* contains _PAGE_GLOBAL on PTI=n
kernels but clears _PAGE_GLOBAL when PTI=y.
We also make __default_kernel_pte_mask a non-GPL exported symbol
because there are plenty of driver-available interfaces that take
PAGE_KERNEL_* permissions.
