Subject: [PATCH v3 0/7] Introduce Kernel Control Flow Integrity ABI [PR107048]
Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2025 16:23:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250913231256.make.519-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi!
Here is v3, which has continued to evolve a lot from v2[1].
This series implements[2][3] the Linux Kernel Control Flow Integrity
ABI, which provides a function prototype based forward edge control flow
integrity protection by instrumenting every indirect call to check for
a hash value before the target function address. If the hash at the call
site and the hash at the target do not match, execution will trap.
Changes since v2:
- Refactored mangling to provide actual builtins, making it SO much
easier to test. This is good not just for KCFI but also for coming
type-aware allocators that need to have a stable value (32-bit
hash) to represent C types.
- Consolidated DECL vs TYPE attributes for KCFI type_id, allowing
for the removal of all the GIMPLE type wrapping and the GIMPLE
passes entirely.
- Tightened testsuite to be much more target and option aware.
- Support nocf_check to disable preamble generation.
- Passes contrib/check_GNU_style.py (with some clear exceptions).
- Added more documentation.
- General cleanups and comment clarifications.
Thanks!
-Kees
