This patch creates the window using text_poke_area, allocated via get_vm_area(). text_poke_area is per CPU to avoid locking. text_poke_area for each cpu is setup using late_initcall, prior to setup of these alternate mapping areas, we continue to use direct write to change/modify kernel text. With the ability to use alternate mappings to write to kernel text, it provides us the freedom to then turn text read-only and implement CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. This code is CPU hotplug aware to ensure that the we have mappings for any new cpus as they come online and tear down mappings for any CPUs that go offline.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
