From 5c79d2a517a9905599d192db8ce77ab5f1a2faca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2009 16:31:00 +0900 Subject: x86: fix x86_32 stack protector bugs Impact: fix x86_32 stack protector Brian Gerst found out that %gs was being initialized to stack_canary instead of stack_canary - 20, which basically gave the same canary value for all threads. Fixing this also exposed the following bugs. * cpu_idle() didn't call boot_init_stack_canary() * stack canary switching in switch_to() was being done too late making the initial run of a new thread use the old stack canary value. Fix all of them and while at it update comment in cpu_idle() about calling boot_init_stack_canary().
