Are we expecting more options here in future? > +config ROP_PROTECTION_NONE > + bool "None" IIUC this is for the benefit of the kretprobes Kconfig. I think it would be better to make that depend on !SHADOW_CALL_STACK, as it's plausible that we can add a different ROP protection mechanism that is compatible with kretprobes. > +config SHADOW_CALL_STACK > + bool "Clang Shadow Call Stack" > + depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_SHADOW_CALL_STACK > + depends on CC_IS_CLANG && CLANG_VERSION >= 70000 Is there a reason for an explicit version check rather than a CC_HAS_<feature> check? e.g. was this available but broken in prior versions of clang?
