This option enables these instructions at EL0 (i.e. for userspace). - Choosing this option will cause the kernel to initialise secret keys for each process at exec() time, with these keys being context-switched along with the process. + If the compiler supports the -mbranch-protection or + -msign-return-address flag (e.g. GCC 7 or later), then this option + will also cause the kernel itself to be compiled with return address + protection.
