Subject: x86/mm/ptdump: Optimize check for W+X mappings for CONFIG_KASAN=y
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=243b72aae28ca1032284028323bb81c9235b15c9;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

x86/mm/ptdump: Optimize check for W+X mappings for CONFIG_KASAN=y

Enabling both DEBUG_WX=y and KASAN=y options significantly increases
boot time (dozens of seconds at least).
KASAN fills kernel page tables with repeated values to map several
TBs of the virtual memory to the single kasan_zero_page:

    kasan_zero_pud ->
        kasan_zero_pmd->
            kasan_zero_pte->
                kasan_zero_page

So, the page table walker used to find W+X mapping check the same
kasan_zero_p?d page table entries a lot more than once.
With patch pud walker will skip the pud if it has the same value as
the previous one . Skipping done iff we search for W+X mappings,
so this optimization won't affect the page table dump via debugfs.

This dropped time spend in W+X check from ~30 sec to reasonable 0.1 sec:

Before:
[    4.579991] Freeing unused kernel memory: 1000K
[   35.257523] x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found.

After:
[    5.138756] Freeing unused kernel memory: 1000K
[    5.266496] x86/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found.
