[PATCH] mte: Follow arm64.nomte override in MMU setup.

Evgenii Stepanov eugenis at google.com
Fri Aug 5 14:47:34 PDT 2022


The current code sets up the memory attribute for Normal Tagged memory
in MAIR_EL1 whenever MTE is supported according to AA64PFR1.MTE without
taking arm64.nomte command line option into account.

This breaks when tag pages are reused as regular memory, as direct
access to such pages through the linear map may create an invalid DRAM
address (tags-of-tags).

This change delays MTE MAIR_EL1 setup until feature overrides can be
processed.
