Subject: Re: [PATCH RFC v3 1/1] gcc-plugins: Add stackleak feature erasing
 the kernel stack at the end of syscalls

Hi Kees,

Thanks for the review.

Sounds good. It was also for the lowest_stack member of
struct thread_struct, but that wasn't strictly necessary for the test
to work correctly, it just means...

...that we should drop this warning, which was mostly a sanity check
during development anyway.

I believe I've addressed the rest as well with the version below.

Cheers,

Subject: [PATCH] lkdtm: add a test for STACKLEAK plugin

There are two tests here, one to test that the BUG() in check_alloca is hit
correctly, and the other to test that the BUG() in track_stack is hit
correctly.

Ideally we'd also be able to check end-to-end that a syscall results in an
entirely poisoned stack, but I'm not sure how to do a syscall from lkdtm.

v2: * use good comment style
    * drop references to lowest_stack, and #define STACKLEAK_POISON if
      necessary
    * drop unnecessary warning about canary space
    * add error messages, make them explicit, and use pr_err()
