Robert P. J. Day 0054f4b708 x86: Explicitly include required header files.
After an experimental cleanup of <linux/percpu.h>, these files were
exposed as invoking kmalloc() without including <linux/slab.h>.

Arjan van de Ven 984bb80d94 x86: mark the .rodata section also NX
The .rodata section shouldn't just be read-only,
but also non-executable. This is free since we've broken
up the 2MB page already anyway.

also update test_nx to check for this.

H. Peter Anvin 92909098a3 x86: use _ASM_EXTABLE macro in arch/x86/kernel/test_nx.c
Use the _ASM_EXTABLE macro from <asm/asm.h>, instead of open-coding
__ex_table entires in arch/x86/kernel/test_nx.c.

Arjan van de Ven edeed30589 x86: add testcases for RODATA and NX protections/attributes
Latest update; I now have 4 NX tests, but 2 fail so they're #if 0'd.
I also cleaned up the NX test code quite a bit, and got rid of the ugly
exception table sorting stuff.

From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

This patch adds testcases for the CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA configuration option
as well as the NX CPU feature/mappings. Both testcases can move to tests/
once that patch gets merged into mainline.
(I'm half considering moving the rodata test into mm/init.c but I'll
wait with that until init.c is unified)

As part of this I had to fix a not-quite-right alignment in the vmlinux.lds.h
for the RODATA sections, which lead to 1 page less being marked read only.
