[PATCH v4 05/36] arm64/sysreg: Add definitions for architected GCS caps

Mark Brown broonie at kernel.org
Mon Aug 7 15:00:10 PDT 2023


The architecture defines a format for guarded control stack caps, used
to mark the top of an unused GCS in order to limit the potential for
exploitation via stack switching. Add definitions associated with these.
