[RFC PATCH v4 19/27] x86/cet/shstk: Introduce WRUSS instruction

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

 



WRUSS is a new kernel-mode instruction but writes directly
to user shadow stack memory.  This is used to construct
a return address on the shadow stack for the signal
handler.

This instruction can fault if the user shadow stack is
invalid shadow stack memory.  In that case, the kernel does
fixup.
