Subject: [PATCH 0/8] arm64: set VMAP_STACK by default
Date: Mon, 07 Jul 2025 09:01:00 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250707-arm64_vmap-v1-0-8de98ca0f91c@debian.org> (raw)

Hi all,

This patchset select VMAP_STACK on arm64 by default, and cleans up the
code by removing all associated CONFIG_VMAP_STACK conditionals.

This is a suggestion from Will Deacon from another discussion[1].

With VMAP_STACK now always enabled on arm64, the code can be
significantly simplified, reducing complexity and potential for
misconfiguration.

Overview of Changes

    * Remove all #ifdef CONFIG_VMAP_STACK and related runtime checks
      throughout the architecture codebase.
    * Replace runtime checks with build-time assertions where
      appropriate.
