[PATCH v4 2/3] x86: Use static_cpu_has in uaccess region to avoid instrumentation

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

 



This patch is a pre-requisite for enabling KASAN bitops instrumentation;
using static_cpu_has instead of boot_cpu_has avoids instrumentation of
test_bit inside the uaccess region. With instrumentation, the KASAN
check would otherwise be flagged by objtool.

For consistency, kernel/signal.c was changed to mirror this change,
however, is never instrumented with KASAN (currently unsupported under
x86 32bit).

  region.

Changes in v2:
* Replaces patch: 'tools/objtool: add kasan_check_* to uaccess
  whitelist'
