[PATCH v4 16/21] mm/ksw: add stack overflow test

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Extend the test module with a new test case (test1) that intentionally
overflows a local u64 buffer to corrupt the stack canary. This helps
validate detection of stack corruption under overflow conditions.

The proc interface is updated to document the new test:

 - test1: stack canary overflow test
