From: H. Peter Anvin Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 23:28:16 +0000 (-0800) Subject: x86, mm: Clean up and simplify NX enablement X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4763ed4d45522b876c97e1f7f4b659d211f75571;p=linux-beck.git x86, mm: Clean up and simplify NX enablement The 32- and 64-bit code used very different mechanisms for enabling NX, but even the 32-bit code was enabling NX in head_32.S if it is available. Furthermore, we had a bewildering collection of tests for the available of NX. This patch: a) merges the 32-bit set_nx() and the 64-bit check_efer() function into a single x86_configure_nx() function. EFER control is left to the head code. b) eliminates the nx_enabled variable entirely. Things that need to test for NX enablement can verify __supported_pte_mask directly, and cpu_has_nx gives the supported status of NX. Signed-off-by: H.
