+Subject: x86: Make x32 syscall support conditional on a kernel parameter
+Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/708070
+Forwarded: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1415245982.3398.53.camel@decadent.org.uk/T/#u
+
+Enabling x32 in the standard amd64 kernel would increase its attack
+surface while provide no benefit to the vast majority of its users.
+No-one seems interested in regularly checking for vulnerabilities
+specific to x32 (at least no-one with a white hat).
+
+Still, adding another flavour just to turn on x32 seems wasteful. And
+the only differences on syscall entry are a few instructions that mask
+out the x32 flag and compare the syscall number.
+
+Use a static key to control whether x32 syscalls are really enabled, a
+Kconfig parameter to set its default value and a kernel parameter
+"syscall.x32" to change it at boot time.
