[PATCH] xen: Disable stack protector for irq helper
From: Bastian Blank
Date: Sun Oct 04 2009 - 14:31:03 EST
The stack protector needs additional registers on x86_32, which are not
saved in calls to the small paravirt interrupt handlers. This leads to
early crashes as registers are overwritten and not saved by the caller
as instructed.
