Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] static_call: Add read-only-after-init static calls
Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2024 20:47:41 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <069be22d3643046173edbbe110218a9fd28a2e55.1732682344.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1732682344.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org>

Deferring a code patching IPI is unsafe if the patched code is in a
noinstr region.  In that case the text poke code must trigger an
immediate IPI to all CPUs, which can rudely interrupt an isolated NO_HZ
CPU running in userspace.

If a noinstr static call only needs to be patched during boot, its key
can be made ro-after-init to ensure it will never be patched at runtime.
