+ * Stack protector works by putting a predefined pattern at the start of
* the stack frame and verifying that it hasn't been overwritten when
- * returning from the function. The pattern is called stack canary
- * and unfortunately gcc historically required it to be at a fixed offset
- * from the percpu segment base. On x86_64, the offset is 40 bytes.
- *
- * The same segment is shared by percpu area and stack canary. On
- * x86_64, percpu symbols are zero based and %gs (64-bit) points to the
- * base of percpu area. The first occupant of the percpu area is always
- * fixed_percpu_data which contains stack_canary at the appropriate
- * offset. On x86_32, the stack canary is just a regular percpu
- * variable.
- *
- * Putting percpu data in %fs on 32-bit is a minor optimization compared to
- * using %gs. Since 32-bit userspace normally has %fs == 0, we are likely
- * to load 0 into %fs on exit to usermode, whereas with percpu data in
- * %gs, we are likely to load a non-null %gs on return to user mode.
- *
- * Once we are willing to require GCC 8.1 or better for 64-bit stackprotector
- * support, we can remove some of this complexity.
+ * returning from the function. The pattern is called the stack canary
+ * and is a unique value for each task.
