    arm64: kprobe: disable probe of fault prone ptrauth instruction · f2ed0ac2
    Amit Kachhap authored
    
    
    This patch disables the probing of authenticate ptrauth instruction
    (AUTIASP) which falls under the hint instructions region. This is done
    to disallow probe of authenticate instruction in the kernel which may
    lead to ptrauth faults with the addition of Armv8.6 enhanced ptrauth
    features.
    
    The corresponding append pac ptrauth instruction (PACIASP) is not disabled
    and they can still be probed.
