Subject: [PATCH] arm64: patching: Annotate text_addrs, new_insns with __counted_by_ptr()
Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2026 13:08:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261020110838.191061-3-blum@kernel.org> (raw)

Add __counted_by_ptr() to aarch64_insn_patch::text_addrs and
aarch64_insn_patch::new_insns to enable access bounds checking via
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.
