[PATCH 03/19] x86/cpufeatures: Enable CET CR4 bit for shadow stack

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@xxxxxxxxx>

Utilizing CET features requires a CR4 bit to be enabled as well as bits
to be set in CET MSRs. Setting the CR4 bit does two things:
 1. Enables the usage of WRUSS instruction, which the kernel can use to
    write to userspace shadow stacks.
 2. Allows those individual aspects of CET to be enabled later via the MSR.

While future patches will allow the MSR values to be saved and restored
per task, the CR4 bit will allow for WRUSS to be used regardless of if a
tasks CET MSRs have been restored.

Kernel IBT already enables the CR4 bit. Modify the logic to enable it for
when the kernel is configured with and detects shadow stack support, as
well.

Rename cet_disable() to ibt_disable() since it no longer applies to all
CET features in the kernel.

---
v2:
 - Drop no_user_shstk (Dave Hansen)
 - Elaborate on what the CR4 bit does in the commit log
 - Integrate with Kernel IBT logic

v1:
 - Moved kernel-parameters.txt changes here from patch 1.

Yu-cheng v25:
 - Remove software-defined X86_FEATURE_CET.

Yu-cheng v24:
 - Update #ifdef placement to reflect Kconfig changes of splitting shadow stack
   and ibt.
