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.
