[PATCH v5 38/39] x86/shstk: Add ARCH_SHSTK_UNLOCK

From: Rick Edgecombe
Date: Thu Jan 19 2023 - 16:43:54 EST


From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Userspace loaders may lock features before a CRIU restore operation has
the chance to set them to whatever state is required by the process
being restored. Allow a way for CRIU to unlock features. Add it as an
arch_prctl() like the other shadow stack operations, but restrict it being
called by the ptrace arch_pctl() interface.
