[PATCH 0/4] arm64: compat: Add kuser helpers config option

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently on arm64 compat kuser helper are enabled by default.

To be on pair with arm32, this patchset makes it possible to disable
the kuser helpers by adding a CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS option which is
enabled by default to avoid compatibility issues.

When the config option is disabled:
 - The kuser helpers-related code is not compiled with the kernel.
 - The kuser helpers mapping, for any compat process, at 0xffff0000
   is not done.
 - Any attempt to use a kuser helper from a compat process will result
   in a segfault.
