Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
![]() Functions like vmap() record how much memory has been allocated by their callers, and callers are identified using __builtin_return_address(). Once the kernel is using pointer-auth the return address will be signed. This means it will not match any kernel symbol, and will vary between threads even for the same caller. The output of /proc/vmallocinfo in this case may look like, 0x(____ptrval____)-0x(____ptrval____) 20480 0x86e28000100e7c60 pages=4 vmalloc N0=4 0x(____ptrval____)-0x(____ptrval____) 20480 0x86e28000100e7c60 pages=4 vmalloc N0=4 0x(____ptrval____)-0x(____ptrval____) 20480 0xc5c78000100e7c60 pages=4 vmalloc N0=4 The above three 64bit values should be the same symbol name and not different LR values. Use the pre-processor to add logic to clear the PAC to __builtin_return_address() callers. This patch adds a new file asm/compiler.h and is transitively included via include/compiler_types.h on the compiler command line so it is guaranteed to be loaded and the users of this macro will not find a wrong version. Helper macros ptrauth_kernel_pac_mask/ptrauth_clear_pac are created for this purpose and added in this file. Existing macro ptrauth_user_pac_mask moved from asm/pointer_auth.h.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
