AFAIR TLB faults are software-assisted and there are different faults for instruction and data TLB fill. It seems that exception.S immu_miss handler checks the TD_EXEC software bit before loading TTE into instructions TLB.

That would at least fix i386 with > PAE to DTRT I think. i386 PAE already handles it, see i386/initcpu.c:754. Unconditionally setting the vars to 1 would break any arch that 1. does not allow to use shared page 2. honors VM_PROT_EXEC in pmap 3. not using local hacks for signal trampolines, like sparc64 does. We might not have any such architecture now (ia64 certainly was such case). _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
