Re: [PATCH v4 01/25] rseq: Introduce feature size and alignment ELF auxiliary vector entries

flat view

* Mathieu Desnoyers:
quoted hunk
Export the rseq feature size supported by the kernel as well as the
required allocation alignment for the rseq per-thread area to user-space
through ELF auxiliary vector entries.

This is part of the extensible rseq ABI.

Do we need the alignment?  Or can we keep it perpetually at 32?  Or we
could steal some bits from AT_RSEQ_FEATURE_SIZE?  (Not the lower
bits—they aren't unused due to the way the feature size works.)

Thanks,
