18  * 10 bits, stack-clash style attacks are unlikely. For more details see
19  * "VLAs" in Documentation/process/deprecated.rst

21  * The normal __builtin_alloca() is initialized with INIT_STACK_ALL (currently
22  * only with Clang and not GCC). Initializing the unused area on each syscall
23  * entry is expensive, and generating an implicit call to memset() may also be
24  * problematic (such as in noinstr functions). Therefore, if the compiler
25  * supports it (which it should if it initializes allocas), always use the
26  * "uninitialized" variant of the builtin.

68  * frustrate attacks from userspace attempting to learn the next offset:
69  * - Maximize the timing uncertainty visible from userspace: if the
70  *   offset is chosen at syscall entry, userspace has much more control
71  *   over the timing between choosing offsets. "How long will we be in
72  *   kernel mode?" tends to be more difficult to predict than "how long
73  *   will we be in user mode?"
74  * - Reduce the lifetime of the new offset sitting in memory during
75  *   kernel mode execution. Exposure of "thread-local" memory content
76  *   (e.g. current, percpu, etc) tends to be easier than arbitrary
77  *   location memory exposure.
