Subject: [PATCH 3/4] arm64/kprobes: set VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS on kprobe instruction pages
Date: Thu, 23 May 2019 11:22:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190523102256.29168-4-ard.biesheuvel@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190523102256.29168-1-ard.biesheuvel@arm.com>

In order to avoid transient inconsistencies where freed code pages
are remapped writable while stale TLB entries still exist on other
cores, mark the kprobes text pages with the VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS
attribute. This instructs the core vmalloc code not to defer the
TLB flush when this region is unmapped and returned to the page
allocator.
