Subject: [PATCH 26/39] x86/mm/pti: Clone CPU_ENTRY_AREA on PMD level on x86_32
Date:   Wed, 11 Jul 2018 13:29:33 +0200
Message-Id: <1531308586-29340-27-git-send-email-joro@8bytes.org>
In-Reply-To: <1531308586-29340-1-git-send-email-joro@8bytes.org>
References: <1531308586-29340-1-git-send-email-joro@8bytes.org>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Joerg Roedel <jroedel@suse.de>

Cloning on the P4D level would clone the complete kernel
address space into the user-space page-tables for PAE
kernels. Cloning on PMD level is fine for PAE and legacy
paging.
