[PATCH v3 01/23] rseq: Introduce feature size and alignment ELF auxiliary vector entries

From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Fri Jul 29 2022 - 15:02:48 EST


Export the rseq feature size supported by the kernel as well as the
required allocation alignment for the rseq per-thread area to user-space
through ELF auxiliary vector entries.

This is part of the extensible rseq ABI.
