Subject: [PATCH 5/5] x86: Support HAVE_CONTEXT_TRACKING_OFFSTACK
Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2020 12:49:19 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201005104919.5250-6-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201005104919.5250-1-frederic@kernel.org>
A lot of ground work has been performed on x86 entry code. Fragile path
between user_enter() and user_exit() have IRQs disabled. Uses of RCU and
intrumentation in these fragile areas have been explicitly annotated
and protected.
This architecture doesn't need exception_enter()/exception_exit()
anymore and has therefore earned CONFIG_HAVE_CONTEXT_TRACKING_OFFSTACK.
