725 | MPX is a hardware-assisted mechanism for performing bounds checking on |
726 | pointers. | |
727 | It consists of a set of registers storing bounds information | |
728 | and a set of special instruction prefixes that tell the CPU on which | |
729 | instructions it should do bounds enforcement. | |
730 | There is a limited number of these registers and | |
731 | when there are more pointers than registers, | |
732 | their contents must be "spilled" into a set of tables. | |
733 | These tables are called "bounds tables" and the MPX | |
734 | .BR prctl () | |
735 | operations control | |
736 | whether the kernel manages their allocation and freeing. | |
efeece04 | 737 | .IP |
03547431 MK |
738 | When management is enabled, the kernel will take over allocation |
739 | and freeing of the bounds tables. | |
740 | It does this by trapping the #BR exceptions that result | |
741 | at first use of missing bounds tables and | |
742 | instead of delivering the exception to user space, | |
743 | it allocates the table and populates the bounds directory | |
744 | with the location of the new table. | |
745 | For freeing, the kernel checks to see if bounds tables are | |
746 | present for memory which is not allocated, and frees them if so. | |
efeece04 | 747 | .IP |
03547431 MK |
748 | Before enabling MPX management using |
749 | .BR PR_MPX_ENABLE_MANAGEMENT , | |
750 | the application must first have allocated a user-space buffer for | |
751 | the bounds directory and placed the location of that directory in the | |

1168 | Set the state of the "THP disable" flag for the calling thread. | |
1169 | If | |
1170 | .I arg2 | |
1171 | has a nonzero value, the flag is set, otherwise it is cleared. | |
1172 | Setting this flag provides a method | |

1175 | .BR madvise (2) | |
1176 | is not an option (i.e., statically allocated data). | |
1177 | The setting of the "THP disable" flag is inherited by a child created via | |
