4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Christophe Leroy <[email protected]> commit 6b8cb66a6a7cc182b47da6a0a1d4e5da324c0695 upstream. On some CPUs like the 8xx, _PAGE_RW hence _PAGE_WRITE is defined as 0 and _PAGE_RO has to be set when a page is not writable _PAGE_RO is defined by default in pte-common.h, however BOOK3S/64 doesn't include that file so _PAGE_RO has to be defined explicitly in book3s/64/pgtable.h Fixes: a7b9f671f2d14 ("powerpc32: adds handling of _PAGE_RO") Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> --- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h | 2 ++ arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c | 7 +++++++ 2 files changed, 9 insertions(+) --- a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h +++ b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h @@ -6,6 +6,8 @@ */ #define _PAGE_BIT_SWAP_TYPE 0 +#define _PAGE_RO 0 + #define _PAGE_EXEC 0x00001 /* execute permission */ #define _PAGE_WRITE 0x00002 /* write access allowed */ #define _PAGE_READ 0x00004 /* read access allowed */ --- a/arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c @@ -1019,8 +1019,15 @@ int gup_hugepte(pte_t *ptep, unsigned lo pte = READ_ONCE(*ptep); mask = _PAGE_PRESENT | _PAGE_READ; + + /* + * On some CPUs like the 8xx, _PAGE_RW hence _PAGE_WRITE is defined + * as 0 and _PAGE_RO has to be set when a page is not writable + */ if (write) mask |= _PAGE_WRITE; + else + mask |= _PAGE_RO; if ((pte_val(pte) & mask) != mask) return 0;
