Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86/uprobes: Keep shadow stack in sync for emulated CALLs
Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2026 14:31:08 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260622183109.1137245-1-dwindsor@gmail.com> (raw)
Uprobe CALL emulation updates the normal user stack, but not the CET user
shadow stack. The subsequent RET then sees a stale shadow stack entry and
raises #CP.
Update the relative CALL emulation and XOL CALL fixup paths to keep the
shadow stack in sync.
Fixes: 488af8ea7131 ("x86/shstk: Wire in shadow stack interface")
