From 63c17fb8e5a46a16e10e82005748837fd11a2024 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Hansen Date: Fri, 12 Feb 2016 13:02:08 -0800 Subject: mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Store protection bits in high VMA flags vma->vm_flags is an 'unsigned long', so has space for 32 flags on 32-bit architectures. The high 32 bits are unused on 64-bit platforms. We've steered away from using the unused high VMA bits for things because we would have difficulty supporting it on 32-bit. Protection Keys are not available in 32-bit mode, so there is no concern about supporting this feature in 32-bit mode or on 32-bit CPUs. This patch carves out 4 bits from the high half of vma->vm_flags and allows architectures to set config option to make them available. Sparse complains about these constants unless we explicitly call them "UL".

We will be using this in subsequent patches. Note that this also begins a series of arch-specific calls that we need to expose in otherwise arch-independent code. We create a linux/pkeys.h header where we will put *all* the stubs for these functions.
