Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH v4 17/18] x86: cet: Reset IBT tracker state on #CP violations
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 12:50:59 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114205100.1873640-18-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114205100.1873640-1-seanjc@google.com>

Reset the IBT tracker state back to IDLE on #CP violations to not
influence follow-up tests with a poisoned starting state.

Opportunistically rename "rvc" to "got_cp" to make it more obvious what
the flag tracks ("rvc" is presumably "raised vector CP"?).

Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause <minipli@grsecurity.net>
[sean: add helper, align indentation, use handler+callback instead of "extra"]
