These need to be enabled to build a CET-enabled kernel, and Binutils v2.31
and GCC v8.1 or later are required to build a CET kernel.
What about LLVM? Surely CrOS might be of interest to ship this on (we ship the
equivalent for aarch64 on Android).
I have not built with LLVM, but think it probably will work as well. I
will test it.
An application's CET capability is marked in its ELF header and can be
verified from the following command output, in the NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0
field:
readelf -n <application> | grep SHSTK
properties: x86 feature: IBT, SHSTK
Same for llvm-readelf.
I will add that to the document.
Thanks,
