Subject: [patch 08/18] x86/syscall: Use [syscall_]enter_from_user_mode_randomize_stack()
Date: Tue, 07 Jul 2026 21:06:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260707190254.079478122@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260707181957.433213175@kernel.org
These functions integrate the stack randomization.
syscall_enter_from_user_mode_randomize_stack() has the advantage that the
randomization happens early right after enter_from_user_mode().
In both cases also the overhead of get/put_cpu_var() in
add_random_kstack_offset() is avoided.
No functional change.
