Subject: [PATCH 3/3] arm64: Set PXN/UXN attributes for uncached mem
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2020 10:01:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200331080109.24402-3-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200331080109.24402-1-s.hauer@pengutronix.de>

The attributes should be set to avoid speculative access to memory-mapped
peripherals.

The patch has been tested with:

noinline unsigned long nox(void)
{
	return get_pc();
}

static void xn_test(void)
{
	void *adr = (void *)SOME_SRAM_ADDRESS;
	unsigned long ret;
	unsigned long (*fn)(void) = adr;

	memcpy(adr, nox, 0x1000);

	sync_caches_for_execution();

	ret = fn();
	printf("pc: 0x%08lx\n", ret);
}

Without this patch nox() gets executed in SRAM, with it runs into a
abort as expected.
