2017-10-03mm: fix RODATA_TEST failure "rodata_test: test data was not read only"Christophe Leroy
On powerpc, RODATA_TEST fails with message the following messages: Freeing unused kernel memory: 528K rodata_test: test data was not read only This is because GCC allocates it to .data section: c0695034 g O .data 00000004 rodata_test_data Since commit 056b9d8a7692 ("mm: remove rodata_test_data export, add pr_fmt"), rodata_test_data is used only inside rodata_test.c By declaring it static, it gets properly allocated into .rodata section instead of .data: c04df710 l O .rodata 00000004 rodata_test_data Fixes: 056b9d8a7692 ("mm: remove rodata_test_data export, add pr_fmt") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170921093729.1080368AC1@po15668-vm-win7.idsi0.si.c-s.fr Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Cc: Jinbum Park <jinb.park7@gmail.com> Cc: Segher Boessenkool <segher@kernel.crashing.org> Cc: David Laight <David.Laight@ACULAB.COM> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2017-05-03mm: remove rodata_test_data export, add pr_fmtKees Cook
Since commit 3ad38ceb2769 ("x86/mm: Remove CONFIG_DEBUG_NX_TEST"), nothing is using the exported rodata_test_data variable, so drop the export. This additionally updates the pr_fmt to avoid redundant strings and adjusts some whitespace.

2017-02-27mm: add arch-independent testcases for RODATAJinbum Park
This patch makes arch-independent testcases for RODATA. Both x86 and x86_64 already have testcases for RODATA, But they are arch-specific because using inline assembly directly. And cacheflush.h is not a suitable location for rodata-test related things. Since they were in cacheflush.h, If someone change the state of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA_TEST, It cause overhead of kernel build. To solve the above issues, write arch-independent testcases and move it to shared location.
