[PATCH v7 0/2] Add API for making parts of a MMIO page R/O and use it in XHCI console

Posted by Marek Marczykowski-Górecki 1 month, 1 week ago

On older systems, XHCI xcap had a layout that no other (interesting) registers
were placed on the same page as the debug capability, so Linux was fine with
making the whole page R/O. But at least on Tiger Lake and Alder Lake, Linux
needs to write to some other registers on the same page too.

Add a generic API for making just parts of an MMIO page R/O and use it to fix
USB3 console with share=yes or share=hwdom options. More details in commit
messages.

  x86/mm: add API for marking only part of a MMIO page read only
  drivers/char: Use sub-page ro API to make just xhci dbc cap RO
