Re: [patch 3/3] Text Edit Lock - kprobes i386

2007-07-05 Thread Mathieu Desnoyers
This suggestion looks more like a workaround to get rid of a bigger
issue.

If we do that, we have to use CONFIG_* exclusivity for either 
(ro-data protection) or (paravirt, kprobes, immediate values).

One big advantage of my patch is that we can remove weird exclusivity
cases involving paravirt and cpu hotplug, like this one:

-#ifndef CONFIG_KPROBES
-#ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
-   /* It must still be possible to apply SMP alternatives. */
-   if (num_possible_cpus() <= 1)
-#endif
-   {
-   change_page_attr(virt_to_page(start),
-size >> PAGE_SHIFT, PAGE_KERNEL_RX);
-   printk("Write protecting the kernel text: %luk\n", size >> 10);
-   kernel_text_is_ro = 1;
-   }

Linus suggested for splitting ro-data and ro-text; And allow ro-text
only if kprobes is not configured.
Please see the discussion thread, URL given below
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/20/436

This patch below allows to configure and mark the kernel text and
kernel data as read-only separately. Also kernel text
is configured read-only if kprobes is not configured.
