[PATCH RFC V3 3/9] x86/pks: Enable Protection Keys Supervisor (PKS)

From: ira . weiny
Date: Fri Oct 09 2020 - 15:43:26 EST


From: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@xxxxxxxxx>

Protection Keys for Supervisor pages (PKS) enables fast, hardware thread
specific, manipulation of permission restrictions on supervisor page
mappings. It uses the same mechanism of Protection Keys as those on
User mappings but applies that mechanism to supervisor mappings using a
supervisor specific MSR.

Kernel users can thus defines 'domains' of page mappings which have an
extra level of protection beyond those specified in the supervisor page
table entries.

Define ARCH_HAS_SUPERVISOR_PKEYS to distinguish this functionality from
the existing ARCH_HAS_PKEYS and then enable PKS when configured and
indicated by the CPU instance. While not strictly necessary in this
patch, ARCH_HAS_SUPERVISOR_PKEYS separates this functionality through
the patch series so it is introduced here.
