Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Move {idmap_pg_dir,tramp_pg_dir,swapper_pg_dir}
Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2018 16:57:54 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180620085755.20045-1-yaojun8558363@gmail.com> (raw)

This patch moves {idmap_pg_dir,tramp_pg_dir,swapper_pg_dir} to .rodata
section, which makes KSMA more difficult. At the same time, it is more
concise than the previous patches[1][2]. As James Morse suggested[2],
this patch updates swapper_pg_dir through the fixmap entry.
