[PATCH v3 00/19] Entry stack switching

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Thu Nov 23 2017 - 23:33:12 EST


This sets up stack switching, including for SYSCALL. I think it's
in decent shape.

I'm fiddling with a patch to make the TSS remap read-only on 64-bit.

Known issues:
- I think we're going to want a way to turn the stack switching on and
off either at boot time or at runtime. It should be fairly straightforward
to make it work.

- I think the ORC unwinder isn't so good at dealing with stack overflows.
It bails too early (I think), resulting in lots of ? entries. This
isn't a regression with this series -- it's just something that could
be improved.

Changes from v2:
- Tons of review comments
- The IDT entry stack switching code is less messy
- The last patch is new

Changes from v1:
- Fixed KASAN for real (as far as I can tell).
- Compiler errors due to my old hackish KASAN fix are gone.
- Context tracking lockdep errors are fixed (and maybe

Changes from farther back:
- This is quite massively changed from last time.
- 32-bit seems to build and mostly work
- KASAN is less broken now
