Linux kernel source tree
a45728fd41
Add support for the stackleak feature. It initializes the stack with the
poison value before returning from system calls which improves the kernel
security.
At the same time, disables the plugin in EFI stub code because EFI stub
is out of scope for the protection.
Tested on Loongson-3A5000 (enable GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK and LKDTM):
# echo STACKLEAK_ERASING > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
# dmesg
lkdtm: Performing direct entry STACKLEAK_ERASING
lkdtm: stackleak stack usage:
high offset: 320 bytes
current: 448 bytes
lowest: 1264 bytes
tracked: 1264 bytes
untracked: 208 bytes
poisoned: 14528 bytes
low offset: 64 bytes
lkdtm: OK: the rest of the thread stack is properly erased

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.
