[PATCH v3 1/2] AARCH64: Add gcc Shadow Call Stack support
From: Dan Li
Date: Thu Mar 03 2022 - 02:43:45 EST
Shadow call stacks will be available in GCC >= 12, this patch makes
the corresponding kernel configuration available when compiling
the kernel with the gcc.
Note that the implementation in GCC is slightly different from Clang.
With SCS enabled, functions will only pop x30 once in the epilogue,
like:
str x30, [x18], #8
stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
......
- ldp x29, x30, [sp], #16 //clang
+ ldr x29, [sp], #16 //GCC
ldr x30, [x18, #-8]!
