[PATCHv3 2/2] arch: Rename CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_DEBUG_MODULE_RONX

Both of these options are poorly named. The features they provide are necessary for system security and should not be considered debug only. Change the names to CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX to better describe what these options do. Signed-off-by: Laura Abbott

[PATCHv3 0/2] Hardening configs refactor/rename

Hi, This is v3 of my series to rename/refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX. Among other objections, there shouldn't be 'debug' in the name since these provide necessary kernel protection. v3 mostly focuses on changing how the Kconfig dependencies work for the refactor.

[PATCHv3 1/2] arch: Move CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX to be common

There are multiple architectures that support CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX. These options also now have the ability to be turned off at runtime. Move these to an architecture independent location and make these options def_bool y for almost all of those arches. Signed-off-by:

[PATCH 3/4] KVM: MIPS: Implement EXIT_VM hypercall

Implement the MIPS EXIT_VM hypercall used by paravirtual guest kernels. When the guest performs this hypercall, the request is passed to userland in the form of a KVM_EXIT_SYSTEM_EVENT exit reason with system event type KVM_SYSTEM_EVENT_SHUTDOWN. We also document the hypercall along with the

Emulate the HYPCALL instruction added in the VZ ASE and used by the MIPS paravirtualised guest support that is already merged. The new hypcall.c handles arguments and the return value, and will handle the individual hypercalls in upcoming commits. Non-zero HYPCALL codes are not handled. We also

[PATCH 2/4] KVM: MIPS: Implement GET_CLOCK_FREQ hypercall

Implement the MIPS GET_CLOCK_FREQ hypercall used by paravirtual guest kernels. When the guest performs this hypercall, the value of count_hz is returned, which is the current rate of the CP0_Count register. We also document the hypercall along with the others as the documentation was never added.

[PATCH 4/4] KVM: MIPS: Implement console output hypercall
