Subject: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/64: poison __per_cpu_offset to catch use-before-init
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2022 13:06:53 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220711030653.150950-2-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220711030653.150950-1-npiggin@gmail.com>
If the boot CPU tries to access per-cpu data of other CPUs before
per cpu areas are set up, it will unexpectedly use offset 0.
Try to catch such accesses by poisoning the __per_cpu_offset array.
