Right, so I don't think the stack protector is even ready that early -
we do set it up later:
/* Set up %gs.
*
* The base of %gs always points to the bottom of the irqstack
* union. If the stack protector canary is enabled, it is
* located at %gs:40. Note that, on SMP, the boot cpu uses
* init data section till per cpu areas are set up.
*/
movl $MSR_GS_BASE,%ecx
movl initial_gs(%rip),%eax
movl initial_gs+4(%rip),%edx
wrmsr
so I think marking the function "no-stack-protector" is the only option
right now. We can always look at fixing that later.
