Component LEGACY_VSYSCALL_XONLY

Component Type: kbuild config

Description: Emulate execution only

More info: The kernel traps and emulates calls into the fixed vsyscall address mapping and does not allow reads. This configuration is recommended when userspace might use the legacy vsyscall area but support for legacy binary instrumentation of legacy code is not needed. It mitigates certain uses of the vsyscall area as an ASLR-bypassing buffer.

Build project: Kconfig (Linux kconfig) (Path: arch\x86\Kconfig )
