From 72b59d67f80983f7bb587b086fb4cb1bc95263a4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pekka Paalanen Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 21:21:01 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86_64: fix kernel rodata NX setting Without CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE, mark_rodata_ro() would mark a wrong number of pages as no-execute. The bug was introduced in the patch "ftrace: dont write protect kernel text". The symptom was machine reboot after a CPU hotplug.
