commit 4f7af1948abcb18b4772fe1bcd84d7d27d96258c upstream. For Gen7, the original cmdparser motive was to permit limited use of register read/write instructions in unprivileged BB's. This worked by copying the user supplied bb to a kmd owned bb, and running it in secure mode, from the ggtt, only if the scanner finds no unsafe commands or registers. For Gen8+ we can't use this same technique because running bb's from the ggtt also disables access to ppgtt space. But we also do not actually require 'secure' execution since we are only trying to reduce the available command/register set. Instead we will copy the user buffer to a kmd owned read-only bb in ppgtt, and run in the usual non-secure mode. Note that ro pages are only supported by ppgtt (not ggtt), but luckily that's exactly what we need. Add the required paths to map the shadow buffer to ppgtt ro for Gen8+ v2: IS_GEN7/IS_GEN (Mika) v3: rebase v4: rebase v5: rebase Signed-off-by: Jon Bloomfield <jon.bloomfield@intel.com> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Cc: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Mika Kuoppala <mika.kuoppala@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris.p.wilson@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
