Subject: [PATCH 00/18] arm64: invoke syscalls with pt_regs
Date: Mon, 14 May 2018 10:46:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180514094640.27569-1-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)

This series reworks arm64's syscall handling to minimize the propagation
of user-controlled register values into speculated code paths. As with
x86 [1], a wrapper is generated for each syscall, which extracts the
argument from a struct pt_regs. During kernel entry from userspace,
registers are zeroed.

The arm64 kernel code directly invokes some syscalls which the x86 code
doesn't, so I've added ksys_* wrappers for these, following the x86
example. The rest of the series is arm64-specific.

I've pushed the series out to my arm64/syscall-regs branch [2] on
kernel.org.

Thanks,
Mark.
