Subject: [RFC PATCH 06/12] scs: place init shadow stack in .shadowstack section
Date: Mon,  8 Apr 2024 23:10:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240409061043.3269676-7-debug@rivosinc.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240409061043.3269676-1-debug@rivosinc.com>

If compiled for riscv and dynamic scs is turned on, place shadow stack in
`.shadowstack` section. Arch specific linker script can place logic to
protect this section against regular stores.
