Subject: [PATCH 3/4] x86/cfi: Boot time selection of CFI scheme
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2022 11:28:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221027092842.699804264@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20221027092812.185993858@infradead.org
Add the "cfi=" boot parameter to allow people to select a CFI scheme
at boot time. Mostly useful for development / debugging.
Requested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
