Subject: [PATCH 1/5] compiler_types.h: Move __nocfi out of compiler-specific header
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2025 07:25:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250825142603.1907143-1-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250825141316.work.967-kees@kernel.org>
From: Kees Cook <kees@outflux.net>
Prepare for GCC KCFI support and move the __nocfi attribute from
compiler-clang.h to compiler_types.h. This was already effectively gated
by CONFIG_CFI_CLANG, so this remains safe for non-KCFI GCC builds.
Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@outflux.net>
