[RFC PATCH v6 20/26] x86/cet/shstk: Introduce WRUSS instruction

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

 



WRUSS is a new kernel-mode instruction but writes directly to user
shadow stack memory.  This is used to construct a return address on
the shadow stack for the signal handler.

This instruction can fault if the user shadow stack is invalid shadow
stack memory.  In that case, the kernel does a fixup.
