This enables the use of per-task stack canary values if GCC has support for emitting the stack canary reference relative to the value of sp_el0, which holds the task struct pointer in the arm64 kernel. The $(eval) extends KBUILD_CFLAGS at the moment the make rule is applied, which means asm-offsets.o (which we rely on for the offset value) is built without the arguments, and everything built afterwards has the options set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
