[PATCH v4 25/39] x86: Introduce userspace API for shadow stack

Rick Edgecombe
2022-12-03T00:41:43Z

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@linux.intel.com>

Add three new arch_prctl() handles:

- ARCH_SHSTK_ENABLE/DISABLE enables or disables the specified
feature. Returns 0 on success or an error.

- ARCH_SHSTK_LOCK prevents future disabling or enabling of the
specified feature. Returns 0 on success or an error

The features are handled per-thread and inherited over fork(2)/clone(2),
but reset on exec().

This is preparation patch. It does not implement any features.

v4:
- Remove references to CET and replace with shadow stack (Peterz)

v3:
- Move shstk.c Makefile changes earlier (Kees)
- Add #ifdef around features_locked and features (Kees)
- Encapsulate features reset earlier in reset_thread_features() so
features and features_locked are not referenced in code that would be
compiled !CONFIG_X86_USER_SHADOW_STACK. (Kees)
- Fix typo in commit log (Kees)
- Switch arch_prctl() numbers to avoid conflict with LAM

v2:
- Only allow one enable/disable per call (tglx)
- Return error code like a normal arch_prctl() (Alexander Potapenko)
- Make CET only (tglx)
