Component ARM64_PAN

Component Type: kbuild config

Description: Enable support for Privileged Access Never (PAN)

More info: Privileged Access Never (PAN; part of the ARMv8.1 Extensions) prevents the kernel or hypervisor from accessing user-space (EL0) memory directly. Choosing this option will cause any unprotected (not using copy_to_user et al) memory access to fail with a permission fault. The feature is detected at runtime, and will remain as a 'nop' instruction if the cpu does not implement the feature.

Build project: Kconfig (Linux kconfig) (Path: arch\arm64\Kconfig )
