+config HAVE_ARCH_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET
+ def_bool n
+ help
+ An arch should select this symbol if it can support kernel stack
+ offset randomization with calls to add_random_kstack_offset()
+ during syscall entry and choose_random_kstack_offset() during
+ syscall exit. Careful removal of -fstack-protector-strong and
+ -fstack-protector should also be applied to the entry code and
+ closely examined, as the artificial stack bump looks like an array
+ to the compiler, so it will attempt to add canary checks regardless
+ of the static branch state.

+config RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT
+ bool "Randomize kernel stack offset on syscall entry"
+ depends on HAVE_ARCH_RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET
+ help
+ The kernel stack offset can be randomized (after pt_regs) by
+ roughly 5 bits of entropy, frustrating memory corruption
+ attacks that depend on stack address determinism or
+ cross-syscall address exposures. This feature is controlled
+ by kernel boot param "randomize_kstack_offset=on/off", and this
+ config chooses the default boot state.
