Subject: [PATCH v10 13/13] arm64: BTI: Add Kconfig entry for userspace BTI
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2020 16:50:55 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200316165055.31179-14-broonie@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200316165055.31179-1-broonie@kernel.org>

From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com>

Now that the code for userspace BTI support is in the kernel add the
Kconfig entry so that it can be built and used.

+	help
+	  Branch Target Identification (part of the ARMv8.5 Extensions)
+	  provides a mechanism to limit the set of locations to which computed
+	  branch instructions such as BR or BLR can jump.
+
+	  To make use of BTI on CPUs that support it, say Y.
+
+	  BTI is intended to provide complementary protection to other control
+	  flow integrity protection mechanisms, such as the Pointer
+	  authentication mechanism provided as part of the ARMv8.3 Extensions.
+	  For this reason, it does not make sense to enable this option without
+	  also enabling support for pointer authentication.  Thus, when
+	  enabling this option you should also select ARM64_PTR_AUTH=y.
+
+	  Userspace binaries must also be specifically compiled to make use of
+	  this mechanism.  If you say N here or the hardware does not support
+	  BTI, such binaries can still run, but you get no additional
+	  enforcement of branch destinations.
