Subject: [PATCH v8 07/15] mm/kasan: use hw_pte_t for the early shadow PTE table
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2026 13:41:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <e24977fba12bae1a05e8eda80c6bebab423ae5e1.1791365932.git.agordeev@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1791365932.git.agordeev@linux.ibm.com>
From: Muhammad Usama Anjum <usama.anjum@arm.com>
kasan_early_shadow_pte is a complete PTE table rather than a software
PTE value. Declare and define its elements as hw_pte_t so the object uses
the PTE table storage type.
Read the first element through ptep_get(), which returns the software PTE
value expected by note_page_pte(), instead of accessing hw_pte_t storage
directly. This also uses the accessor selected by the architecture.
No architecture selects ARCH_HAS_HW_PTE_T at this point, so the storage
representation remains unchanged.
