Subject: [PATCH] kasan: Remove kasan_unpoison_stack_above_sp_to()
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2020 15:35:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200706143505.23299-1-vincenzo.frascino@arm.com> (raw)
The function kasan_unpoison_stack_above_sp_to() is defined in kasan code
but never used. The function was introduced as part of the commit:
commit 9f7d416c36124667 ("kprobes: Unpoison stack in jprobe_return() for KASAN")
... where it was necessary because x86's jprobe_return() would leave
stale shadow on the stack, and was an oddity in that regard.
Since then, jprobes were removed entirely, and as of commit:
commit 80006dbee674f9fa ("kprobes/x86: Remove jprobe implementation")
... there have been no callers of this function.
Remove the declaration and the implementation.
