[PATCH v3 0/2] Last minute rseq fixes for 7.0
Posted by Mathieu Desnoyers 1 month, 1 week ago
Hi,

Here are two last minute rseq fixes aiming at 7.0.

The first is a clarification of a rseq registration comment to match the
rseq_size range checks.

The second ensures that the new scheduler slice extension field don't
end up exposing a rseq feature size equal to the original rseq size,
which would make life harder than it needs to be for userspace.

Updates since v2:

- Update comment above struct rseq in the uapi header.

Thanks,

Mathieu
