Using shifts to determine if an address is canonical is difficult for the compiler to optimize when the virtual address width is variable (LA57 feature) without using inline assembly. Instead, compare RIP against TASK_SIZE_MAX. The only user executable address outside of that range is the deprecated vsyscall page, which can fall back to using IRET.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
