[PATCH 7/9] x86/mm: Shadow stack page fault error checking

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

 



If a page fault is triggered by a shadow stack access (e.g.
call/ret) or shadow stack management instructions (e.g.
wrussq), then bit[6] of the page fault error code is set.

In access_error(), we check if a shadow stack page fault
is within a shadow stack memory area.
