[PATCH 00/13] [v4] x86, pkeys: two protection keys bug fixes
From: Dave Hansen
Date: Wed May 09 2018 - 13:21:38 EST
Hi x86 maintainers,
This set has been seen quite a few changes and additions since the
last post. Details below.
Changes from v3:
* Reordered patches following Ingo's recommendations: Introduce
failing selftests first, then the kernel code to fix the test
failure.
* Increase verbosity and accuracy of do_not_expect_pk_fault()
messages.
* Removed abort() use from tests. Crashing is not nice.
* Remove some dead debugging code, fixing dprint_in_signal.
* Fix deadlocks from using printf() and friends in signal
handlers.
Changes from v2:
* Clarified commit message in patch 1/9 taking some feedback from
Shuah.
Changes from v1:
* Added Fixes: and cc'd stable. No code changes.

This fixes two bugs, and adds selftests to make sure they stay fixed:
1. pkey 0 was not usable via mprotect_pkey() because it had never
been explicitly allocated.
2. mprotect(PROT_EXEC) memory could sometimes be left with the
implicit exec-only protection key assigned.
I already posted #1 previously. I'm including them both here because
I don't think it's been picked up in case folks want to pull these
all in a single bundle.
