Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] Introduce Kernel Control Flow Integrity ABI [PR107048]
Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2025 20:02:42 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250926023737.it.616-kees@kernel.org> (raw)
Hi,
Here is v4! :)
This series implements[1][2] 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 v3[3]:
- Clarified commit logs and kcfi.cc design docs further.
- Switched to KCFI-specific global label counter.
- Refactored patchable function entry and alignment padding calculations
and added extensive comments.
- Moved option validation into early option processing.
- Switched arm to using eor sequence suggested by Ard Biesheuvel.
- Switched arm scratch register to ip with r3 fallback.
- Removed redundant aarch64 clobbers.
- Added KCFI availability function for regression tests.
- Refactored regression tests to use check-function-bodies.
- Split arch-specific regresion test patterns into per-arch patches (I
don't like having fully separate test source files be per-arch since
the conditions being tested are usually arch-agnostic).
- Added more complete function interface comments.
- Added -ffixed-$reg option checking and associated tests.
- Various other small cleanups.
Thanks!
-Kees
