[PATCH v25 0/9] Control-flow Enforcement: Indirect Branch Tracking

From: Yu-cheng Yu
Date: Thu Apr 15 2021 - 18:18:32 EST


Control-flow Enforcement (CET) is a new Intel processor feature that blocks
return/jump-oriented programming attacks. Details are in "Intel 64 and
IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual" [1].

This is the second part of CET and enables Indirect Branch Tracking (IBT).
It is built on top of the shadow stack series.

Changes in v25:
- Make updates to Kconfig and CPU feature flags for the removal of Kconfig
X86_CET and software-defined X86_FEATURE_CET.
- Update ENDBR definition.
- Rebase to Linus tree v5.12-rc7.
