Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 01:12:19 +0100 From: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@...hat.com> To: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...capital.net> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@...hat.com>, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com>, Borislav Petkov <bp@...en8.de>, "H. Peter Anvin" <hpa@...or.com>, Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@...il.com>, X86 ML <x86@...nel.org>, Alexei Starovoitov <ast@...mgrid.com>, Will Drewry <wad@...omium.org>, Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 1/6] x86: add comments about various syscall instructions, no code changes SYSCALL/SYSRET and SYSENTER/SYSEXIT have weird semantics. Moreover, they differ in 32- and 64-bit mode. What is saved? What is not? Is rsp set? Are interrupts disabled? People tend to not remember these details well enough. This patch adds comments which explain in detail what registers are modified by each of these instructions. The comments are placed immediately before corresponding entry and exit points.
