Subject: [PATCH v3 4/7] arm64: cfi: Use CONFIG_ARM64_FUNCTION_PREFIX_NOPS for the type hash offset
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2026 16:56:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261029-b4-arm64-callops-kcfi-v3-4-1b011ad5ddec@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261029-b4-arm64-callops-kcfi-v3-0-1b011ad5ddec@linux.dev>

Make cfi_get_offset(), SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START and the BPF JIT use
CONFIG_ARM64_FUNCTION_PREFIX_NOPS instead of hardcoding four bytes. kCFI
kernels with CALL_OPS need three NOPs, or five with ThinLTO and BTI.

CONFIG_ARM64_FUNCTION_PREFIX_NOPS is 0 on every CFI kernel today, so no
functional change.
