Yeah, as a tested example, this works for x86_64, and based on what you had, I'd expect it to work on arm64 too: #include <stdio.h> static __attribute__((noinline)) void set_return_addr(unsigned long *expected, unsigned long *addr) { /* Use of volatile is to make sure final write isn't seen as a dead store. */ unsigned long * volatile *ret_addr = (unsigned long **)__builtin_frame_address(0) + 1; /* Make sure we've found the right place on the stack before writing it. */ if (*ret_addr == expected) *ret_addr = addr; } volatile int force_label; int main(void) { do { /* Keep labels in scope. */ if (force_label) goto normal; if (force_label) goto redirected; set_return_addr(&&normal, &&redirected); normal: printf("I should be skipped\n"); break; redirected: printf("Redirected\n"); } while (0); return 0; } It does _not_ work under Clang, though, which I'm still looking at. -- Kees Cook
