Subject: [PATCH] static_call: use CFI-compliant return0 stubs
Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2026 22:57:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260311225822.1565895-1-cmllamas@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260309223156.GA73501@google.com>
Architectures with !HAVE_STATIC_CALL (such as arm64) rely on the generic
static_call implementation via indirect calls. In particular, users of
DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0, default to the generic __static_call_return0
stub to optimize the unset path.
However, __static_call_return0 has a fixed signature of "long (*)(void)"
which may not match the expected prototype at callsites. This triggers
CFI failures when CONFIG_CFI is enabled. A trivial linux-perf command
does it:
$ perf record -a sleep 1
CFI failure at perf_prepare_sample+0x98/0x7f8 (target: __static_call_return0+0x0/0x10; expected type: 0x837de525)
Internal error: Oops - CFI: 00000000f2008228 [#1] SMP

[...]
To fix this, let architectures provide an ARCH_DEFINE_TYPED_STUB_RET0
implementation that generates individual signature-matching stubs for
users of DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0. This ensures the CFI hash of the
target call matches that of the callsite.
