Cool; thanks for writing these!

I'd expect these to be in cfi.c, rather than making a new source file.

Is the asm needed here? Why not:

	unsigned long *lr = (unsigned long *)__builtin_frame_address(0) + 1;

	*lr = 0;

I think these two tests should be collapsed into a single one.

This is slightly surprising -- we have no detection when a function has
its non-shadow-stack return address corrupted: it just _ignores_ the
value stored there. That seems like a missed opportunity for warning
about an unexpected state.

Other tests try to give some hints about failures, e.g.:

		pr_err("FAIL: cannot change for SCS\n");
		pr_expected_config(CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK);

Though, having the IS_ENABLED in there makes me wonder if this test
should instead be made _survivable_ on failure. Something like this,
completely untested:


#ifdef CONFIG_ARM64
static noinline void lkdtm_scs_set_lr(unsigned long *addr)
{
	unsigned long **lr = (unsigned long **)__builtin_frame_address(0) + 1;
	*lr = addr;
}

/* Function with __noscs attribute clears its return address. */
static noinline void __noscs lkdtm_noscs_set_lr(unsigned long *addr)
{
	unsigned long **lr = (unsigned long **)__builtin_frame_address(0) + 1;
	*lr = addr;
}
#endif


void lkdtm_CFI_BACKWARD_SHADOW(void)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_ARM64

	/* Verify the "normal" condition of LR corruption working. */
	do {
		/* Keep label in scope to avoid compiler warning. */
		if ((volatile int)0)
			goto unexpected;

		pr_info("Trying to corrupt lr in a function without scs protection ...\n");
		lkdtm_noscs_set_lr(&&expected);

unexpected:
		pr_err("XPASS: Unexpectedly survived lr corruption without scs?!\n");
		break;

expected:
		pr_err("ok: lr corruption redirected without scs.\n");
	} while (0);


	do {
		/* Keep labe in scope to avoid compiler warning. */
		if ((volatile int)0)
			goto good_scs;

		pr_info("Trying to corrupt lr in a function with scs protection ...\n");
		lkdtm_scs_set_lr(&&bad_scs);

good_scs:
		pr_info("ok: scs takes effect.\n");
		break;

bad_scs:
		pr_err("FAIL: return address rewritten!\n");
		pr_expected_config(CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK);
	} while (0);
#else
	pr_err("XFAIL: this test is arm64-only\n");
#endif
}

And we should, actually, be able to make the "set_lr" functions be
arch-specific, leaving the test itself arch-agnostic....
