[PATCH v3 03/13] mm/execmem, arch: convert simple overrides of module_alloc to execmem

From: Mike Rapoport
Date: Mon Sep 18 2023 - 03:52:56 EST


From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Several architectures override module_alloc() only to define address
range for code allocations different than VMALLOC address space.

Provide a generic implementation in execmem that uses the parameters
for address space ranges, required alignment and page protections
provided by architectures.

The architectures must fill execmem_params structure and implement
execmem_arch_params() that returns a pointer to that structure. This
way the execmem initialization won't be called from every architecture,
but rather from a central place, namely initialization of the core
memory management.

The execmem provides execmem_text_alloc() API that wraps
__vmalloc_node_range() with the parameters defined by the architectures.
If an architecture does not implement execmem_arch_params(),
execmem_text_alloc() will fall back to module_alloc().

The name execmem_text_alloc() emphasizes that the allocated memory is
for executable code, the allocations of the associated data, like data
sections of a module will use execmem_data_alloc() interface that will
be added later.
