4 Subject: [PATCH] x86/pti: Make unpoison of pgd for trusted boot work for real
6 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
7 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
11 The inital fix for trusted boot and PTI potentially misses the pgd clearing
12 if pud_alloc() sets a PGD. It probably works in *practice* because for two
13 adjacent calls to map_tboot_page() that share a PGD entry, the first will
14 clear NX, *then* allocate and set the PGD (without NX clear). The second
15 call will *not* allocate but will clear the NX bit.
17 Defer the NX clearing to a point after it is known that all top-level
18 allocations have occurred. Add a comment to clarify why.
