From 63bcff2a307b9bcc712a8251eb27df8b2e117967 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2012 12:43:12 -0700 Subject: x86, smap: Add STAC and CLAC instructions to control user space access When Supervisor Mode Access Prevention (SMAP) is enabled, access to userspace from the kernel is controlled by the AC flag. To make the performance of manipulating that flag acceptable, there are two new instructions, STAC and CLAC, to set and clear it. This patch adds those instructions, via alternative(), when the SMAP feature is enabled. It also adds X86_EFLAGS_AC unconditionally to the SYSCALL entry mask; there is simply no reason to make that one conditional. Signed-off-by: H.
