On book3s/32 MMU, PP bits don't offer kernel RO protection, kernel pages are always RW. However, on the 603 a page fault is always generated when the C bit (change bit = dirty bit) is not set. Enforce kernel RO protection by clearing C bit in TLB miss handler when the page doesn't have _PAGE_RW flag.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
