Memory Tagging (part of the ARMv8.5 Extensions) provides
|
||||
architectural support for run-time, always-on detection of
|
||||
various classes of memory error to aid with software debugging
|
||||
to eliminate vulnerabilities arising from memory-unsafe
|
||||
languages.
|
||||
|
||||
This option enables the support for the Memory Tagging
|
||||
Extension at EL0 (i.e. for userspace).
|
||||
|
||||
Selecting this option allows the feature to be detected at
|
||||
runtime. Any secondary CPU not implementing this feature will
|
||||
not be allowed a late bring-up.
|
||||
|
||||
Userspace binaries that want to use this feature must
|
||||
explicitly opt in. The mechanism for the userspace is
|
||||
described in:
|
||||
|
||||
Documentation/arm64/memory-tagging-extension.rst.
