Linux kernel source tree
Add the STACKLEAK gcc plugin to arm32 by adding the helper used by stackleak common code: on_thread_stack(). It initialize the stack with the poison value before returning from system calls which improves the kernel security. Additionally, this disables the plugin in EFI stub code and decompress code, which are out of scope for the protection. Before the test on Qemu versatilepb board: # echo STACKLEAK_ERASING > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING lkdtm: XFAIL: stackleak is not supported on this arch (HAVE_ARCH_STACKLEAK=n) After: # echo STACKLEAK_ERASING > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING lkdtm: stackleak stack usage: high offset: 80 bytes current: 280 bytes lowest: 696 bytes tracked: 696 bytes untracked: 192 bytes poisoned: 7220 bytes low offset: 4 bytes lkdtm: OK: the rest of the thread stack is properly erased Signed-off-by: Jinjie Ruan <ruanjinjie@huawei.com> Acked-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
