-Subject: MIPS: math-emu: Write-protect delay slot emulation pages
-
-Mapping the delay slot emulation page as both writeable & executable
-presents a security risk, in that if an exploit can write to & jump into
-the page then it can be used as an easy way to execute arbitrary code.
-
-Prevent this by mapping the page read-only for userland, and using
-access_process_vm() with the FOLL_FORCE flag to write to it from
-mips_dsemul().
-
-This will likely be less efficient due to copy_to_user_page() performing
-cache maintenance on a whole page, rather than a single line as in the
-previous use of flush_cache_sigtramp(). However this delay slot
-emulation code ought not to be running in any performance critical paths
-anyway so this isn't really a problem, and we can probably do better in
-copy_to_user_page() anyway in future.
-
-A major advantage of this approach is that the fix is small & simple to
-backport to stable kernels.
