[PATCH 0/3] lib/vsprintf: Hash remaining raw addresses

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Mon Oct 08 2018 - 07:05:12 EST


Hi all,

There are still two format specifiers that print unhanced kernel
addresses, potentially leaking sensitive information regarding the
kernel layout in memory.

This patch series fixes this by printing hashed addresses instead.

Thanks!

lib/vsprintf: Prepare for more general use of ptr_to_id()
lib/vsprintf: Hash legacy clock addresses
lib/vsprintf: Hash printed address for netdev bits fallback
