Subject: [PATCH v18 05/27] riscv: usercfi state for task and save/restore of CSR_SSP on trap entry/exit
Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2025 12:46:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250711-v5_user_cfi_series-v18-5-a8ee62f9f38e@rivosinc.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250711-v5_user_cfi_series-v18-0-a8ee62f9f38e@rivosinc.com>
Carves out space in arch specific thread struct for cfi status and shadow
stack in usermode on riscv.
This patch does following
- defines a new structure cfi_status with status bit for cfi feature
- defines shadow stack pointer, base and size in cfi_status structure
- defines offsets to new member fields in thread in asm-offsets.c
- Saves and restore shadow stack pointer on trap entry (U --> S) and exit
(S --> U)
Shadow stack save/restore is gated on feature availiblity and implemented
using alternative. CSR can be context switched in `switch_to` as well but
soon as kernel shadow stack support gets rolled in, shadow stack pointer
will need to be switched at trap entry/exit point (much like `sp`). It can
be argued that kernel using shadow stack deployment scenario may not be as
prevalant as user mode using this feature. But even if there is some
minimal deployment of kernel shadow stack, that means that it needs to be
supported. And thus save/restore of shadow stack pointer in entry.S instead
of in `switch_to.h`.
