Subject: [PATCH v6 12/30] set_memory: Introduce arch_has_pte_only_direct_map()
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 17:55:00 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260227175518.3728055-13-kevin.brodsky@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260227175518.3728055-1-kevin.brodsky@arm.com>
Introduce a helper that returns whether the linear map is fully
PTE-mapped (i.e. no block mapping is used). This is a runtime
decision for some architectures, hence the need for a new arch
helper.
