[RFC][PATCH 18/24] x86/pti: Execute system vector handlers on the kernel stack
From: Alexandre Chartre
Date: Mon Nov 09 2020 - 09:45:58 EST
After an interrupt/exception in userland, the kernel is entered
and it switches the stack to the PTI stack which is mapped both in
the kernel and in the user page-table. When executing the interrupt
function, switch to the kernel stack (which is mapped only in the
kernel page-table) so that no kernel data leak to the userland
through the stack.
Changes system vector handlers to execute on the kernel stack.
