[PATCH v14 00/26] Control-flow Enforcement: Shadow Stack
From: Yu-cheng Yu
Date: Mon Oct 12 2020 - 11:39:54 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].
CET can protect applications and the kernel. This series enables only
application-level protection, and has three parts:
- Shadow stack [2],
- Indirect branch tracking [3], and
- Selftests [4].
I have run tests on these patches for quite some time, and they have been
very stable. Linux distributions with CET are available now, and Intel
processors with CET are becoming available. It would be nice if CET
support can be accepted into the kernel. I will be working to address any
issues should they come up.
Changes in v14:
- Update patch #10, add cpu_feature_enabled() to fixup_dirty_*.
- Update patch #19, instead of re-introducing do_mmap_pgoff(), make all
callers of the wrapper pass a zero vm_flags.
- Update patch #26, move checking vm_flags into arch_validate_prot();
check the task's shadow stack status, instead of static_cpu_has().

[2] CET Shadow Stack patches v13:

[3] Indirect Branch Tracking patches v13.

[4] I am holding off the selftests changes and working to get Acked-by's.
The earlier version of the selftests patches:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200521211720.20236-1-yu-cheng.yu@xxxxxxxxx/
[5] The kernel ptrace patch is tested with an Intel-internal updated GDB.
I am holding off the kernel ptrace patch to re-test it with my earlier
patch for fixing regset holes.
