Hi, This series implements Shadow Stacks for userspace using x86's Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET). CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack part of this feature, and just for userspace. The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction, the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy. For more details, see the coverletter from v1 [0]. The comments on the last version were mainly code style and verbiage. There was also some late but great questions on the overall design, raised by people starting to look at implementing non-x86 shadow stack features. After discussion on the history and purpose of the design choices, the changes that ultimately came out of the discussion were documentation updates. Some of the concerns were eventually found to be based on misunderstandings of the x86 shadow stack HW limitations. Others were taken as future enhancements. There was a fair amount of discussion on adding the map_shadow_stack syscall instead of building new behaviors into mmap(). Ultimately, since there was no consensus and it was agreed that there wasn't impact on other archs, this was left as well. Lastly, per Dave, the author for most of the the patches from the old series has been swapped to me from Yu-cheng, so potential bisecters can find help better. Previously these patches had me just as Co-developed-by. At this point, I think we have a pretty good initial shadow stack implementation here. I'd like to start with the basics and let real world usage inform the enhancements if we can. Unless anyone sees any likely ABI trap we are walking into. I left tags in place. Previous version [1].
