3 * GCC stack protector support.
5 * Stack protector works by putting predefined pattern at the start of
6 * the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when
7 * returning from the function. The pattern is called stack canary
8 * and unfortunately gcc requires it to be at a fixed offset from %gs.
9 * On x86_64, the offset is 40 bytes and on x86_32 20 bytes. x86_64
10 * and x86_32 use segment registers differently and thus handles this
11 * requirement differently.
13 * On x86_64, %gs is shared by percpu area and stack canary. All
14 * percpu symbols are zero based and %gs points to the base of percpu
15 * area. The first occupant of the percpu area is always
16 * fixed_percpu_data which contains stack_canary at offset 40. Userland
17 * %gs is always saved and restored on kernel entry and exit using
18 * swapgs, so stack protector doesn't add any complexity there.
20 * On x86_32, it's slightly more complicated. As in x86_64, %gs is
21 * used for userland TLS. Unfortunately, some processors are much
22 * slower at loading segment registers with different value when
23 * entering and leaving the kernel, so the kernel uses %fs for percpu
24 * area and manages %gs lazily so that %gs is switched only when
25 * necessary, usually during task switch.
27 * As gcc requires the stack canary at %gs:20, %gs can't be managed
28 * lazily if stack protector is enabled, so the kernel saves and
29 * restores userland %gs on kernel entry and exit. This behavior is
30 * controlled by CONFIG_X86_32_LAZY_GS and accessors are defined in
31 * system.h to hide the details.

63 * with a function call which gets tail-call optimized as that would
64 * lead to checking a modified canary value.
