* x86: Explicitly include required header files.Robert P. J. Day2008-04-17
| | | | | | | | After an experimental cleanup of <linux/percpu.h>, these files were exposed as invoking kmalloc() without including <linux/slab.h>. Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@crashcourse.ca> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* x86: mark the .rodata section also NXArjan van de Ven2008-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | The .rodata section shouldn't just be read-only, but also non-executable. This is free since we've broken up the 2MB page already anyway. also update test_nx to check for this. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* x86: use _ASM_EXTABLE macro in arch/x86/kernel/test_nx.cH. Peter Anvin2008-02-04

* x86: add testcases for RODATA and NX protections/attributesArjan van de Ven2008-01-30
Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd. I also cleaned up the NX test code quite a bit, and got rid of the ugly exception table sorting stuff. From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/ once that patch gets merged into mainline. (I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll wait with that until init.c is unified) As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h for the RODATA sections, which lead to 1 page less being marked read only.
