Subject: [PATCH v7 6/9] x86/KASLR: Clarify purpose of each get_random_long()
Date: Mon,  9 May 2016 13:22:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1462825332-10505-7-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1462825332-10505-1-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org>

KASLR will be calling get_random_long() twice, but the debug output
won't distinguishing between them. This patch adds a report on when it
is fetching the physical vs virtual address. With this, once the virtual
offset is separate, the report changes from:

KASLR using RDTSC...
KASLR using RDTSC...

into:

Physical KASLR using RDTSC...
Virtual KASLR using RDTSC...
