[PATCH 1/3] arm64: Defer enabling pointer authentication on boot core

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

 



Defer enabling pointer authentication on boot core until
after its required to be enabled by cpufeature framework.
This will help in controlling the feature dynamically
with a boot parameter.
