Subject: [PATCH v3 18/19] x86/entry/64: Remove the SYSENTER stack canary
Date: Thu, 23 Nov 2017 20:33:04 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <be3179c0a38c392fa44ebeb7dd89391ff5c010c3.1511497875.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1511497874.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1511497874.git.luto@kernel.org>
Now that the SYSENTER stack has a guard page, there's no need for a
canary to detect overflow after the fact.
Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>
