Kees Cook d46e58ef77 lkdtm/bugs: Check that a per-task stack canary exists
Introduce REPORT_STACK_CANARY to check for differing stack canaries
between two processes (i.e. that an architecture is correctly implementing
per-task stack canaries), using the task_struct canary as the hint to
locate in the stack. Requires that one of the processes being tested
not be pid 1.

README

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.
