[PATCH v8 01/29] mm: Introduce ARCH_HAS_USER_SHADOW_STACK

Deepak Gupta debug at rivosinc.com
Mon Nov 11 12:53:46 PST 2024


From: Mark Brown <broonie at kernel.org>

Since multiple architectures have support for shadow stacks and we need to
select support for this feature in several places in the generic code
provide a generic config option that the architectures can select.
