randomize_kstack: Improve entropy diffusion
The kstack_offset variable was really only ever using the low bits for kernel stack offset entropy. Add a ror32() to increase bit diffusion. Suggested-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Fixes: 39218ff4c625 ("stack: Optionally randomize kernel stack offset each syscall") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240309202445.work.165-kees@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>
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 reStructuredText 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.
