Historically, the kernel has used strongly ordered mappings to
|
|
provide DMA coherent memory. With the advent of ARMv7, mapping
|
|
memory with differing types results in unpredictable behaviour,
|
|
so on these CPUs, this option is forced on.
|
|
|
|
Multiple mappings with differing attributes is also unpredictable
|
|
on ARMv6 CPUs, but since they do not have aggressive speculative
|
|
prefetch, no harm appears to occur.
|
|
|
|
However, drivers may be missing the necessary barriers for ARMv6,
|
|
and therefore turning this on may result in unpredictable driver
|
|
behaviour. Therefore, we offer this as an option.
|
|
|
|
On some of the beefier ARMv7-M machines (with DMA and write
|
|
buffers) you likely want this enabled, while those that
|
|
didn't need it until now also won't need it in the future.
|
|
|
|
You are recommended say 'Y' here and debug any affected drivers.

If this is set, rodata will be made explicitly non-executable. This
|
|
provides protection on the rare chance that attackers might find and
|
|
use ROP gadgets that exist in the rodata section. This adds an
|
|
additional section-aligned split of rodata from kernel text so it
|
|
can be made explicitly non-executable. This padding may waste memory
|
|
space to gain the additional protection.
