For alt shadow stack's, this is what I came up with: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220929222936.14584-40-rick.p.edgecombe@xxxxxxxxx/ Unfortunately it can't work automatically with sigaltstack(). Since it has to be a new thing anyway, it's been left for the future. I guess that might have a better chance of being cross arch. BTW, last time this series accidentally broke an arm config and made it all the way through the robots up to Linus. Would you mind giving patches 1-3 a check? Thanks, Rick
