Subject: [PATCH v28 07/32] x86/mm: Remove _PAGE_DIRTY from kernel RO pages
Date:   Thu, 22 Jul 2021 13:51:54 -0700
Message-Id: <20210722205219.7934-8-yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <20210722205219.7934-1-yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>

The x86 family of processors do not directly create read-only and Dirty
PTEs.  These PTEs are created by software.  One such case is that kernel
read-only pages are historically setup as Dirty.

New processors that support Shadow Stack regard read-only and Dirty PTEs as
shadow stack pages.  This results in ambiguity between shadow stack and
kernel read-only pages.  To resolve this, removed Dirty from kernel read-
only pages.
