Context: I would like to run some unmodified executables with TSO enabled and the prctl+execve way would be perfect for this. Unfortunately, I do not know any other way to enable TSO for this. Especially as the kernel modules (cyyself/m1tso-linux, leeehui/tso-enabler) that enabled this system-wide are not working anymore.

In 6.3 @marcan added rudimentary TSO support over
prctl(https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/commit/b5c05cbffb0488c7618106926d522cc3b43d93d5). This toggles the memory model for the currently running process. A caveat of the current implementation is that this does not surviveexecve. Is this the expected behavior or a bug?Context: I would like to run some unmodified executables with TSO enabled and the
