From 964c9dff0091893a9a74a88edf984c6da0b779f7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Popov Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2018 01:17:03 +0300 Subject: stackleak: Allow runtime disabling of kernel stack erasing Introduce CONFIG_STACKLEAK_RUNTIME_DISABLE option, which provides 'stack_erasing' sysctl. It can be used in runtime to control kernel stack erasing for kernels built with CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK.
