[PATCH v10 25/26] x86/cet/shstk: Handle thread shadow stack

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

 



The kernel allocates (and frees on thread exit) a new shadow stack for a
pthread child.

    It is possible for the kernel to complete the clone syscall and set the
    child's shadow stack pointer to NULL and let the child thread allocate
    a shadow stack for itself.  There are two issues in this approach: It
    is not compatible with existing code that does inline syscall and it
    cannot handle signals before the child can successfully allocate a
    shadow stack.

A 64-bit shadow stack has a size of min(RLIMIT_STACK, 4 GB).  A compat-mode
thread shadow stack has a size of 1/4 min(RLIMIT_STACK, 4 GB).  This allows
more threads to run in a 32-bit address space.

v10:
- Limit shadow stack size to 4 GB.
