[PATCH v3 03/37] x86/cpufeatures: Add CPU feature flags for shadow stacks

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

 



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

The Control-Flow Enforcement Technology contains two related features,
one of which is Shadow Stacks. Future patches will utilize this feature
for shadow stack support in KVM, so add a CPU feature flags for Shadow
Stacks (CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):ECX[bit 7]).

To protect shadow stack state from malicious modification, the registers
are only accessible in supervisor mode. This implementation
context-switches the registers with XSAVES. Make X86_FEATURE_SHSTK depend
on XSAVES.

The shadow stack feature, enumerated by the CPUID bit described above,
encompasses both supervisor and userspace support for shadow stack. In
near future patches, only userspace shadow stack will be enabled. In
expectation of future supervisor shadow stack support, create a software
CPU capability to enumerate kernel utilization of userspace shadow stack
support. This will also allow for userspace shadow stack to be disabled,
while leaving the shadow stack hardware capability exposed in the cpuinfo
proc. This user shadow stack bit should depend on the HW "shstk"
capability and that logic will be implemented in future patches.

v3:
 - Add user specific shadow stack cpu cap (Andrew Cooper)
 - Drop reviewed-bys from Boris and Kees due to the above change.

v2:
 - Remove IBT reference in commit log (Kees)
 - Describe xsaves dependency using text from (Dave)

v1:
 - Remove IBT, can be added in a follow on IBT series.

Yu-cheng v25:
 - Make X86_FEATURE_IBT depend on X86_FEATURE_SHSTK.
