Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2015 19:17:30 -0700 From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org> To: x86@...nel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Frédéric Weisbecker <fweisbec@...il.com>, Rik van Riel <riel@...hat.com>, Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com>, Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@...glemail.com>, Borislav Petkov <bp@...en8.de>, Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>, Brian Gerst <brgerst@...il.com>, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org> Subject: [RFC/PATCH v2 v2 2/6] x86/entry/32: Remove 32-bit syscall audit optimizations The asm audit optimizations are ugly and obfuscate the code too much. Remove them. This will regress performance if syscall auditing is enabled on 32-bit kernels and sysenter is in use. If this becomes a problem, interested parties are encouraged to implement the equivalent of the 64-bit opportunistic sysret optimization. Alternatively, a case could be made that, on 32-bit kernels, a less messy asm audit optimization could be done. 32-bit kernels don't have the complicated partial register saving tricks that 64-bit kernels have, so the sysenter post-syscall path could just call the audit hooks directly. Any reimplementation of this ought to demonstrate that it only calls the audit hook once per syscall, though, which does not currently appear to be true. Someone would have to make the case that doing so would be better than implementing opportunistic sysexit, though.
