[PATCH v29 00/10] Control-flow Enforcement: Indirect Branch Tracking

From: Yu-cheng Yu
Date: Fri Aug 20 2021 - 14:23:45 EST


Control-flow Enforcement (CET) is a new Intel processor feature that blocks
return/jump-oriented programming attacks. Details are in "Intel 64 and
IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual" [1].

This is the second part of CET and enables Indirect Branch Tracking (IBT).
It is built on top of the shadow stack series.

Changes in v29:
- Rebase to Linus tree v5.14-rc6.

Changes in v28:
- Patch #10: Update change log and comments.
- Rebase to Linus tree v5.14-rc2.

Changes in v27:
- Use a ucontext flag to save/restore IBT status.
- Disable IBT support for IA32.
- Rebase to Linus tree v5.13-rc2.
