[PATCH 0/6] Clean up Shadow Call Stack patches for 5.8

From: Will Deacon
Date: Fri May 15 2020 - 13:28:09 EST


Hi all,

Here's a series of cleanups I hacked together on top of a modified v13
of the Shadow Call Stack patches from Sami:

20200515172355.GD23334@willie-the-truck">https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200515172355.GD23334@willie-the-truck

The main changes are:

* Move code out of arch/arm64 and into the core implementation
* Store the full SCS stack pointer instead of the offset
* Code simplification and general style things

I'd like to queue this on top early next week so that it can spend some
quality time in linux-next.

Cheers,

Will
