Indeed set_fixmap is supposed to take a memory attribute in parameter. However, some callers seem to mix the use of PAGE_* and direct attributes... I will resend this series with set_fixmap fixed. Cheers,

Currently, it is not possible to specify the permission of a new mapping. It would be necessary to use the function modify_xen_mappings with a different set of flags. Introduce a couple of new flags for the permissions (Non-eXecutable, Read-Only) and also provides definition that combine the memory attribute and permission for common combinations. PAGE_HYPERVISOR is now an alias to PAGE_HYPERVISOR_RW (read-write, non-executable mappings). This does not affect the current mapping using PAGE_HYPERVISOR because Xen is currently forcing all the mapping to be non-executable by default (see mfn_to_xen_entry). A follow-up patch will change modify_xen_mappings to use the new flags.
