From f94560cd6b5117f8913f4c42f4d9a405c26ddc1c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joerg Roedel Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 11:41:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm/pti: Clone CPU_ENTRY_AREA on PMD level on x86_32 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. Signed-off-by: Joerg Roedel Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Tested-by: Pavel Machek Cc: "H .
