From 2a41aa4feb25af3ead60b740c43df80c576efea2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2016 19:00:33 -0800 Subject: x86/entry/32: Add and check a stack canary for the SYSENTER stack The first instruction of the SYSENTER entry runs on its own tiny stack. That stack can be used if a #DB or NMI is delivered before the SYSENTER prologue switches to a real stack. We have code in place to prevent us from overflowing the tiny stack. For added paranoia, add a canary to the stack and check it in do_debug() -- that way, if something goes wrong with the #DB logic, we'll eventually notice.
